... clichéd. hackneyed, trite, unoriginal and, let's face it, fairly arrogant posts of beer snobs ("that's
not beer" "Budwhizzer" "pisswater" "fucking close to water&quot in the honking voices of a flock of
geese passing overhead.
.
For being from and of the "Party of Choice", an unfortunate number of us look down upon those
others of us who don't share their, um... you know... "refinement".
.
Talk about peer pressure... I mean LITERAL beer-peein' "peer" pressure to be "one of us... one of
us... one of us... one of us". Where the hell do people get off telling other people what should or
should not... even what does or does not taste good to that particular individual.
.
We get it. You're the "beer literati" whose purpose in life is to save the great unwashed hordes
from "themselves".
.
GEEZ... at least get some clichés that mirror the alleged "freshness" of your favorite beverage --
and not the repetitive mantra of name-calling from the Michael Savage show.
.
She likes what she likes. Period. End of statement. Suggestions for better "choices" without all
the arrogance would certainly be appreciated.

That said, Coors Beer WAS founded by the aptly-named ADOLPH Coors and had a decades, if
not century-long reputation as company that supported seriously rightwing causes. They've
spent many decades now emphasizing the "difference" between what "Coors Beer" and what the
"Coors family" supports -- including the foundation in the 90's of the Castle Rock Foundation --
even further separating the "name" itself from this funding.

That company doesn't deserve your financial support for blatant political reasons (geez, if ever
there were such a company, it's Grandpa Adolph's)... but not because "that's not beer,that's
pisswater".
