Oh great. The End of History is back. That same cringeworthy tryhard plea for attention that populates every Men’s Health/Esquire magazine “MOST EXPENSIVE BEER” list has returned. Tabling that for a moment, let’s examine what Brewdog setting it’s Scottish red dot sight on Ohio means for consumers:

This is nightmarish for so many reasons:

1. Submarine Other actually delicious breweries like Jackie Os with shitty transatlantic schlock

2. Show up after the struggle is over, bring terrible black patent malt stouts to service Sharpie/Skoal palates

3. Shake the alms cup despite the fact that Ohio has plenty of awesome breweries that actually deserve your patronage without “punk equity”

4. Serving 55% white lightning distillate and calling it a blonde ale

5. Flexing the market capital to strong arm tap handles out from things like Bodhi in lieu of wince inducing Punk IPA.

I don’t need to go on, the palm cannot be separated from the face.
