Anti-PG&E Beer Brewers Are Not Backing Down - Eater SF
"Santa Rosa’s Shady Oak Barrel House announced its newest beer via Facebook last week: a “classic California pale ale, featuring Cashmere and Simcoe hops and a touch of malt sweetness,” as well as a striking name. The brew is called “Fuck PG&E,” a name intended to illustrate the frustration many Californians currently feel with the utility. Though the brewery’s owner says he intended it as a gesture of solidarity for victims of fires allegedly started by PG&E equipment, the beer’s name has also angered many, causing a spate of one-star Yelp reviews for the business." - Eve Batey
