Question about beer Login/Join

not meant to be divisive just trying to spend my money more wisely and selectively. are there any known brands of beer or breweries that lean right politically these days?

seems like most big brews have bought into the woke culture and try to not offend the angry mobs out there. every small time micro brew in my area appears full left, don't want to hand them my money.

reference that posted article, they call a beer left leaning and another right leaning, both from the same brewery.

Different breweries in different cities, same home brand?

God please don’t ruin beer with politics. If I don’t get force fed a company’s political beliefs I don’t care if they agree with me. I want actors to act, brewers to brew, chef’s to cook and keep their politics to their circle of friends.




These go to eleven.

frayedends I get it, this stuff can be beaten to death. lots of sports and tv shows and magazines etc etc have all been ruined for me lately due to forcing their politics. was hoping to find a beer company that said no to the trend or at least believes close to what I do.

I don't even want to know. Seriously.

There are a couple Michigan breweries that publicly came out for Biden. They did so in such a manner I couldn't possibly miss it. Fine: They've been put on my Do Not Buy list.

I DO NOT WANT MY BEER POLITICIZED. Or my whiskey. Or my coffee. Or any other damn product I buy. I'm sick of this crap of politicizing everything

I get it, but by burying our heads in the sand and buying their products we are helping the wrong cause.

Damn right. When I can I will not patronize companies that hate us.

Ok, well, let me help you unbury your head, then: Best not be using anything from at least the following companies: Apple, Google, YouTube (owned by Google), Amazon, Netflix, GoDaddy, Facebook, Instagram (owned by Facebook), Twitter, and Microsoft. Probably a host of other tech companies, as well, since the tech. industry is pretty badly riddled with snowflakes and leftists. I hope you're not watching any of ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, MSNBC (there's Microsoft again), or CNN. Oh, probably should divest yourself of any use of Comcast, since they own NBC. Should probably not watch hardly anything coming out of Hollyweird, since it's almost universally leftist. Hope you're not watching any pro sports. They've all gone woke.

In fact: To avoid accidentally supporting the enemy, you should probably just get off the grid entirely and go live out in the wilderness.

Learn how to brew your own beer and distill your own spirits. And grow your own grains for them.

ok but I wasn't asking about Apple or Comcast or Fox or NBC. I was asking for a single company for a single product that I could maybe support.

I split my time between the Traditional Lager and Golden Pilsner. I've tried the Black & Tan and the Light, and they aren't bad. It is only priced about 10% higher than the "cheap suds" but is much better than any of them. Politically, they endorsed Donald Trump in 2016, gave the unions the boot (both of which earned them apparently unsuccessful boycotts) and have lobbied to make PA a right-to-work state. (According to Wikipedia.) A win-win situation.

I don't know that Yeungling is available in the OP's listed location of NC. Maybe it's time for a road trip. Big Grin

egregore yes the Y. beers are in most all grocery stores here, at least the Lager is maybe not all of the portfolio. I'll pick up a 6 pack on Monday and try with some wings.

I love beer! Big time beer nerd, home brewer. I have been to a bazillion craft breweries. As a rule, the beer community seems pretty classic “liberal” laid back, live and let live.

Now, sure I get the vibe from 90% of the customers and brewery staff they probably vote Dem (if they vote) offhand I’ve never noticed anything overtly political. I also live in OR so there’s that...

I don't drink much beer, but Yeungling Lager has been my favorite ever since I first tasted it, maybe ten or fifteen years ago.

I liked it for the taste, now that I have just learned about the company attitude, I like it even better.

The one I go out of my way to avoid is ‘spotted Cow’ & anything from their brewery in New Glarus, WI.

The owner is nutty left. It’s not even that good of beer.

OMG, beer is not a "cause." Beer is beer! If you life is that consumed by politics, maybe you should switch to medical marijuana and chill.
