The Stupor

Post by zane9 »

Will some brave local brewer launch "The Stupor" in honour of His Worship R. Ford? I'm sure Collective Arts Brewing could come up with some great labels!

I liked the Flying Monkey's tweet about this, something to the effect of "When I am in a drunken stupor I eat poutine."

Drunken Stupor would never get approved by the AGCO, The Stupor still probably not. Perhaps a one off? :)

Are brewers allowed to create a beer name/label, sell it only at their brewery, and avoid the thugs of "social responsibility"?

Sounds like a good opportunity for GLB to rebrand dirt bag mcquaig.

Given that his worship declares 'a few pops at home' to be the way to go, molson should just rebrand coors light.

Besides while suffering from a persecution complex, crazy 'elitist' craft brewers are the last thing this guy needs to get his simple head around.

I think they are all still technically subject to the same rules, but I doubt Joe's Bar is getting labellings approval when he re-brands something as "Joe's Lager" so who knows. I don't actually know the rules though. Anyone else?

Indie Alehouse (actually Jeff) tweeted that they are serving a StuporStar Toronto Strong Ale. He says it will make you feel better about yourself.....

Hey and anyway don't we advocate the opposite?

Rob Ford - guzzles a mickey of vodka before hopping into the drivers seat and tearing off down the road.

We Bartowellers - like to slowly enjoy the flavor of fermented grains at least as much as we appreciate the alcohol delivery system...

Let's by a fair leap of logic make people see that enjoying really good craft beer represents the opposite of Rob Ford being mayor and everything he does.
