Over the weekend, while walking the aisles of my local BevMo, I stumbled upon the following beer.
I stared sideways at the label for a few seconds, took a quick picture with my cell phone and posed the following question on my Twitter feed:
I think I need a ruling from my Jewish friends. Offensive or all in good fun?
M'man Sam thought it was harmless, as he responded, "Good fun. Good beer."
Beer Snob Mike commissioned an in-house research committee. His findings: "According to my wife, mostly good fun. Mascot dude's a wee bit offensive."
And, Movie Joe got gloriously faux theological: "[I'm] not Jewish, but the dominion that beer-loving Hasidim is holding over the globe seems more than a little Zionist."
Let's all be glad no one asked this guy.
Ummm...the second guy.
Dude!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're killing me here. I thought I was your "go-to" Jew.
What, just cause I'm a recovering alkie who hasn't had a drop in 15 years 7 months and 20 days I don't get to spout off about Jewy McJew Brew?
(a few minutes later, after my deflated ego recovered)
I think it's cute. If I still drank, I'd have some. Of course, if I still drank I'd have anything. Especially if you were buying.
If I were to ever play fantasy basketball, "Go To Jews" would be the name of my team.
