Also, some people are just idiots. My local Market Basket (regional chain in New England) had a big display of Budweiser American Ale when it first came out, with hand written signs that said "Budweiser American Lager, NEW!"

Any, after that, they started carrying Kona brewing beers, which are brewed IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, for a brewery in Hawaii. The put up signs stating "brewed in Hawaii!"

Some people are just stupid. It's your job to enlighten them

That's pretty dang funny about the Market Basket. However, Kona does indeed have a microbrewery in Hawaii, but that stuff only stays on the island. Mainland draft and bottled versions are brewed in a couple over the continental US, including New Hampshire.

Yeah, and it say's it right on the bottle "brewed in NH"

Thats why I keep my Sharpe handy... so I can correct their mistakes!
