Redhook, Widmer, 10 Barrel have been sold by AB Inbev. New owner is Tilray Brands of Canada.
I kinda like 10 Barrel.
Fascist collaborator and spy Andy Ngo suffered another court loss this afternoon in Oregon.
After a week long trial the suit Ngo filed in June of 2020 finally went to the jury this week and came back after a few hours with a defense verdict.
So three years of trial prep and a full week in trial and he walks away sobbing just like he did in 2020.
Ngo began his odyssey with filings targeting fifty five people, but only five that he could ever name. In the long years of proceedings that followed the courts have noped him out of all but two of those defendants. And today those two defendants prevailed.
Here’s original video of a piece of shit fascist getting beat up and running away crying. Enjoy:

Issue 1, the always wrong wing attempt in Ohio to hamstring democracy, has been defeated..
fill the tank, make the rent… heh.. yeah right..
@1
So did a lot of people until they got purchased and then they hardcore fans went away and ABInBev were forced to try to sell 22oz 9% cans at the gas station OR convince die hard fizzy yellow low flavor beer to drink IPA.
Seems like so many big ass conglomerates underestimated the backlash of people who love independent things just walking away.
Speaking of backlash…
Measure 1 isn’t just going down it’s going down YUGE!
A 53% Trump state in a ‘low turnout’ special election DESIGNED to produce a conservative result if possible is going to end up 57% go fuck yourselves GOP. By the time they finish counting Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati it could even be 60% Hell the Fuck NO!
Evangelicals were big behind it to make November’s the Abortion measure need 60%.
Hardcore Republicans wanted to head off any redistricting to get rid of a gerrymandered state where a slim majority of statewide votes produces a supermajority state legislature.
Chamber of Commerce was big behind it to head off any future Unionization or Minimum wage initiatives.
But the GOP really wanted to poke the sleeping Donkey.
Millenials, “Nah it’s OK we don’t need to worry. They won’t REALLY do that.”
Gen Z, “We’re totally fucked by these guys and now they’re saying our gay friends should leave the state or die.
Millenials and Gen Z, “We should vote.”
Ohio is in play for 2024 for the Democrats.
@2 Did wearing a “Kick Me” sign at the protest sway the jury against him?
Florida schools not only don’t have teachers, they’re not going to have janitors and other classified employees, either.

7)Wonder if the janitors get water breaks during major heat events.
6,
I think by now there is something like half a million people in about 30 western US cities who have actually memorized that stupid fascist fuckstick’s face. And probably another half million who have it on their phone.
Is that as good as a “kick me” sign?
Fame isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, I guess.
Consider this was not just raising the threshold to 60%. It would also require that to get an issue on the ballet you need 5% of the last election turnout to sign your petition in each county. so would have need 750 people in putnam, which voted 90/10 republican. No issue would end up on the ballet ever again.
The major (democratic) cities in Ohio had only one early voting place. Lines were over 2 hours long and wrapped around the building at the Franklin county elections board, and you also have to factor in that these single polling locations are not centrally located. Given that Ohio is also slightly over 50% conservative a 57% no vote is an absolute slap to the Republicans establishment.
Republicans were outright lying about what could happen if the bill wasn’t passed. If you just got your news from political ads you’d think if Issue 1 passed all kids were going to be forced to be trans and California would be allowed to pass ballot initiatives for Ohio.
“We have heard your voice and understand. As a show of good faith, we’re getting rid of early voting and mail-in voting.” – the GOP, probably
Such joy at the assault of a gay member of a minority community.
I was equally joyful over Richard Spencer’s assault.
And he’s none of those things as far as anyone knows.
But he is a fascist.
Bigots like the Shit-Lord Crybaby should tolerate gay people and Asian people. It’s not asking too much. Being either of those things does them no real harm.
But nobody should tolerate fascists who work to deprive us all of our most fundamental civil rights, destroy our democracy, and empower authoritarian dictatorships.
@11
Bitch please.
@11. He doesn’t get a pass for being a gay Asian fascist. He’s a fascist.
You want LGBTQ people erased.
@14
Your honor, my client did burn the books that led to the fire that took out the city block that caused the toxic cloud that killed all the neighborhood cats.
But you must let him go. He’s a gay Asian.
And a Journalist.
This could be the slightest bit of Karma realignment for George Zimmerman STARTING a fight and then claiming self defense and standing his ground. We see through that in Washington. You throw the first punch and consequences.
