    I thought this was great. If I lived in the UK, I would certainly get some!

    I want it... The U.S. is getting better on its equality, but I can't buy that lovely, hilarious beer for a good cause.

    You can order it and have it shipped to the U.S. (or most places in the world, for that matter). But you'll have to pay an arm and a leg to do so.

    A six-pack will run you $26.10 (£15.99), but that's small potatoes compared to the shipping - a whopping $89.72 (£55). The (very, very small) silver lining is that you can order four six packs for a total of 24 bottles, and still pay the same shipping price. So, if you did that, you'd end up spending $194.12. Figuring your typical six-pack costs about $6.50, that's equivalent to the price of nearly 30 typical six-packs.

    It must be awesome living in a state that actually gives a sh!t about LGBT people. Here in TN, the only Putin-themed beer you could get would be along the lines of "Putin is the second coming of Christ Ale" or something like that.

    One could say Massachusetts is the most liberal state in perhaps one of the most if not most liberal and progressive countries in the world.


    But it's not that it's LGBT beer, it's just that my local store sells all kinds of rare beer.

    Just wait until Russia invades Scotland, might as well be a declaration of war with all of the hatred Putin is getting, still the best idea I've heard of yet :grin:

    Putin does have his own brand of vodka. Putinka. Very popular.

    Well actually, some would say Russia has technically been at war with the town of Berwick on Tweed, on the Anglo-Scottish border, for over 100 years...

    Gawd, I hope my asshole father finds a bottle of this in the imports section of the booze place he shops at! I hope it's got lots of hops too, just so he has to decide between novelty beer and not supporting gay shit! Ha!
