Yesterday I bought RC not Coke, BLVD wheat not Miller Genuine

Miller is trying to stick it to office workers on their pensions. Coke and Colombia I think everybody knows about. What we buy or don't buy, does make a difference! I have e mailed both companies about this too.

6. Thanks. I'll Look For It.
I'm not sure it's available up in the stix where I live, but next trip to Athens/Atlanta, I'll check.

4. It's only the greatest thing on the whole planet!
Ok, that's a little extreme, but I've been a fan for several years. It's a great beer. They operate out of Kansas City (where blvd on tap is to die for) and they make several types: Wheat, Pale Ale, Porter, Stout, etc... Best beer around as far as I'm concerned. Unless, of course I'm at a sushi bar, where I have to have a 22oz Sapporo. It's it's a real swanky joint, they MIGHT have Orion from Okinawa, but I usually don't hold out too much hope for that.

2. Boulevard Wheat rocks!
Edited on Sun May-06-07 08:45 AM by realpolitik
Their pale ale is fine too!
Of course, the brewery is about two miles from my house

PS The name comes from the fact that they are on Southwest Boulevard in KC, in the heart of the Latino west side.

5. So what is Boulevard doing?
I absolutely LOVE blvd wheat, but didn't know they were a good company as far as labor goes. That just makes it that much better for me. Got a 12 pack of Blvd Wheat in the fridge waiting on me to do some yardwork this afternoon. Will consume it with pride! :D
