Rainier Beer
In a can!
1/15 I'm throwin it down old school here, in a well attended party near Lake Union in Seattle. And I feel socially responsible about it, as all profits go to aid tsunami victims. Nothing beats socially responsible partying. Nothing. Well, maybe socially responsible sex...
So I'm drunk enough to review a Rainier Beer in a 16 oz can. I had one already, but I wasn't feeling the funk yet.
Lemme check, yeah, there it is. Funk thy name is Ethanol. (Advanced technique is acid, George Clinton style, but I have not achieved that level yet.)
So my sources tell me there is a Save Rainier Beer campaign, which is about 5 years too late, as the brewery has already been sold to Pabst. The campaign provided this party with copious quantities of beer at nominal cost (free), but I'm only telling you what I heard.
Which brings us to the question of the evening: "Should we save Rainier Beer?"
*pchah* tok.
Well, it tastes like beer... so yes, absolutely. I'm for ethnic diversity as well as beerthnic diversity. This tastes like beer, so therefore it deserves our support.
I suppose the more immediate question, as unless I miss my guess, the goal of Save Rainier Beer is to make Rainier the PBR of Seattle. Fuckin followers, can't handle not being the first to think of having a beer for hipsters. Nah, just playing.
It may taste better than PBR. Maybe. But does that really matter? No. So, if I were Julius Caesar, my thumb would be... *up*.
WDTB? Seattle hipsters who wish to distance themselves from Portland hipsters. People who con the Save Rainier Beer people out of beer.
WSDTB? People with good con game. People still fixated on Nirvana.
Rating: 5.0/10

Only after you move to Seattle, Deana. This is not, repeat, NOT, for Portland hipsters.
