The Beer Summit

[emo_snal]

   So the so-called "White House Beer Summit" occurred today. As a beer commentator I would of course be remiss not to offer some analysis on this.

However, it appears a number of different political commentary blogs have already thoroughly analyzed it, so instead I'll just point you to the best of those that I have found   The basic breakdown

Bud Light?

Also, Prof. Gates supposedly actually drank Sam Adams.

Eeew to all of the above.

Sam Adams at the Beer Summit?

O RLY? Scandalous! Do you know specifically which Sam Adams offering?

I don't, sadly. I'd feel better about him if it was the Summer Ale, which I find more tolerable than the regular.

Sam Adams in general is better than Bud or Coors-- but neither of them hold a candle to Killians.

But Sam Adams was a brewer and a patriot. And from Boston. I think Obama should have had the Sam Adams. If Hillary had joined them she could have had a Tsing-Tao: suck up to the Chinese. This post was great.

LOL! Good point!

I agree, Sam Adams would have been a very excellent choice. Their beer really ain't that bad either. They're a large scale producer that still has some craft cred because they make a lot of experimental brews.

And lolz at the Tsing-Tao. ;D

Oh also Biden showed up and had some non-alcohol beer (is he a recovering alcoholic? a teetotaler?)

Killians is brewed by Coors. given that, it's not bad.
