Weird Beer News Update


If you need to catch up on the latest:

1. Don't hire this guy unless you didn't like the deceased. By the way, that's way more than "stopping for a beer" unless he's drinking individual molecules. 

2. Watermelon beer?

3. Is this the guy from our Facebook group picture? (UPDATE: we now have video.)

4. From the Redundancy News Department of Redundancy: the headline, "For beer drinkers, summertime means summer beers". No joke. Opening line: "When you think about it, beer drinkers are a lot like grizzly bears." Gets better from there.

5. Beer for dogs. Also no joke. Look at the picture above. I guess it's better than a beer for kids.... Oh, wait, that has has actually happened, for real.

6. Actually, this is quite normal and good beer news: Alabama passed a law allowing beer above 6% alcohol to be sold (now it can be up to 13.9%). Why are any of these laws still on the books? And what happens at 14% alcohol that makes beer no-good for Alabama? What is the argument that there should be any ceiling whatsoever on beer alcohol limits? Grain alcohol is sold in the state's limits; seems like anything less than that should be legal, too.
