What are You Drinking on Election Night?

Toasting the Latino wave with Dos Equis?

Cheering for Trump with a pale ale?

I think that I will grab some Yuengling Lager, because:
1. I really like it.
2. I'll be thinking of my home state.
3. The owner is a Trump supporter, and I want to start the healing thru beer. 
Hey, men of good conscience can disagree and still share a few cold ones. 


We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

There's some Philly area bars who have pulled Yeungling from their taps because Dick Yuengling came out in support of Trump.

Personally, I think that's dumb. Both on Yuengling because why get your business involved with a political candidate. And because if you like something, why turn away from it over a political argument.

For me, I'm going to stick with what's currently in the beer fridge.

Lancaster Oktoberfest
Bell's Two-Hearted Ale
Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale.

The first returns from Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina start coming in at 7:00 EST. My hope is that it's a quick night and I can get to bed by 10:00. But I have enough beer reserves to make it all the way to Alaska, if needed.

For America.

Wish I was an imbiber but no, I'll be sticking with my Trader Joe's something-or-other green tea or a glass of Strite's Orchard's apple cider.

I'm going with wine.  Starting off with a vin nobile from Montepulciano (ok, maybe I cheated since my shipment came two days ago), then switching to a brunello, and finishing the evening off with a vin santo from a tiny winery south of Florence in the Chianti Classico region.

But hey, before the fun, I might sip to a nut brown ale or two.  So many beers ........ so little time.

Thinking of putting a bottle of prosecco in the fridge, but I don't want to jinx myself.
I can always chill it in a bucket of ice water in a pinch.

Some will laugh, some will crow, as for me, I'd rather drink (Laughing) Crow than eat crow!
