Why does bob Dylan hate craft brewers? [View all]

"Let Germany brew your beer" Yeah right on, Bob.

I don't care that you did an ad, when you did the Victoria's Secret ad, I was over that. When Jerry Garcia did a Levis' ad I was over the whole thing.

But this is an outright diss at American craft brewing.

I'm appalled. Outraged. disgusted.
