Punk IPA
I went to Tesco's on Saturday to get some provisions.
Because it was father's day, they had a lot of beer
on sale. They had a bottle of beer called "Punk IPA".
In my mid twenties I used to listen to a lot of
hard core punk, so the "do it yourself ethic" was part of
my mind set -- although I am not sure I actually did anything
myself. This beer was called "a post modern classic pale ale"
The beer was tasty, don't get me wrong, but is nothing sacred.
Punk has been turned into a marketing tool.
I was planning a few more paragraphs of ranting about
marketing of something as important as punk. However, when I looked the
beer up on the Internet, I see that it is produced by a micro brewery
in Scotland. Also they have a beer called "Physics". Yummy. Ok I forgive
them. Now I just need to figure how to get more.
