As long as they don't take the tax cut then move operations overseas (like Harley-Davidson) I don't have a problem with it.
Personally, I stopped buying from that company when the owner was on a 'morning, shock-jock' radio show that was airing a couple having sex in the confessional of a Catholic Church. He should have excused himself from that program so I excused myself from his company.

I'll stop drinking that stuff too. We have a better beer company here in W. Mass anyway (Berkshire Brewing).....fresher. Sam Adams stuff was good, but they went too commercial IMHO. They subcontract out a lot of their brewing now.

Honestly...if I thought Sam Adams was the best made....I would probably drink it. But this is an easy one to pass over.

Never had Berkshire, but if you haven't been to Tree House in Charlton, get there ASAP.

If I was a true beer nut....here in W. Mass we have radio programs on Beer....we have dozens of breweries...and even the "beer trail".....people are crazy about beer, beer, beer!

You'd think pot wasn't legal......
:-)

People are having too much fun with beer...

Check this Map out....while you wait for the Rec Pot shops to open (unfortunately, neither booze nor pot fully agree with my constitution....)....

Valley Beer Trail

Here is Berkshire....I'm no beer expert, but their Steel Rail tastes like it's made with the best water on earth! And, our local town (not far from there) won a prize in DC tasting for "best municipal water" a few years back...so it makes some sense.

Thanks for sharing that. I make the trip up there once in a while for beer. Remind me how happy I was about you sharing this with me next time I argue with you about something on here.

Kudos to my Mayor.

Berkshire makes really good beer, but I think they have been hurt by the IPA craze, they have always been against making super-hoppy beers which is now the most popular craft beer style.

Somerville's mayor is a moron in general.

Sam Adams is p*** beer anyway. So many more better beer options here in Colorado.

Maybe Sam Adams will brew an orange beer in Trump's honor. It would probably be skunky tasting.
