but I haven't done the research--I have cast a ballot for the primary candidate of my choice. Thanks to Oregon's May primary, every other time, my candidate was long dead and buried before our election. There is every indication my candidate in this election will not only have my vote, but the majority of Democratic votes in the state. Which raises the really tough question--which beer to hoist in celebration?I'm working on a short list here ...
IPAWell, in any case, I'll be hoisting one to my man. Cheers, Barack!
Pro - Aggressive flavor, celebratory style
Con - "bitter"
Red Ale
Pro - red is the traditional color of left-leaning political movements
Con - red is the color of the current GOP
Light Lager
Pro - a fave of working-class whites
Con - not a fave of Oregonian working-class whites
Abbey Ale
Pro - nod to the evangelical vote
Con - Belgian
Brown Ale
Umm, let's not go there.
i'd vote for something dark and manly
ReplyDeleteSomething from Chicago, maybe? Because I usually avoid Kenyan and Kansan beers.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely nothing from Clinton Street Brewing.
One of two choices:
ReplyDelete1 - "Near-beer" because it's not really beer although it looks like it. Totally fake, promises you a beer-like experience but when reality hits, the truth is revealed.
2 - Some dark (but sissy) beer to remind everyone of the return to the dark days of racism (affirmative action), higher taxes, bigger government, increased union empowerment (resulting in more outsourcing) and higher debt than ever before.
someone get justadog a Bus(c)h!
ReplyDeleteJust came from an election party (Senate candidate Jeff Merkley's) where they had one beer on tap: Terminal Gravity IPA. I have to say, how sweet it was!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to go with the beer that I was drinking while I saw the results coming it: the imperial stout homebrew that I was bottling and sneaking sips of. Didn't mind the flatness too much during my man's victory.
ReplyDeleteI'd say a glass of whine. You can forget beer if the Dems win since the hysteria to grow bio-fuels will cause every barley farmer to switch to corn.
