Wow:

Baby promotes underage drinking

quote:

Michigan has followed New Hampshire by banning the sale of Founders Brewery’s Oatmeal Breakfast Stout because a baby appears on the label

The Grand Rapids-based brewery announced last week it was changing the label after the image was said to promote underage drinking.

“As we gear up for Stout Season, we’re also saying goodbye to a dear friend. The baby of Breakfast Stout is taking some time away from his crib after being booted from the label in our home state of Michigan,” the brewer said in a statement posted to its website, reported Michigan Live.

On the new label, bowl is still on the table but the baby is no longer. But he left a note on the refrigerator with the message, “Left the crib for a bit, call me if you need me 616-522-2720.”

It's mind boggling how big of pussies we really have become as a country. Everything offends someone and we have to please them.

I was under the impression they still would have the baby on the label in other states.

Top 5 beer for me. Don't really care either way, beer is the same.

It's one of my favorites. Amazingly, it pairs really well with a McDonalds big breakfast with pancakes.

But what the frick. I'm glad we've solved all the country's other problems before attacking the beer label.

I remember when that was a whale for me. Mainly because of the label. Sad times

Brash is working on putting a bi-racial, cis-female fetus with an automatic weapon and smoking an unfiltered cigarette on a beer label

Triggered IPA

The alcoholic energy drinks promote underage drinking, but I do not follow how a baby promotes it. Babies don't care about beer.
