The MST has sold bottles of its organic “Get Out Temer” beer in droves at the ongoing Second National Agrarian Reform Fair in São Paulo.


Brazil’s Landless Workers' Movement, MST, has sold over a hundred bottles of its organic “Get Out Temer” beer within 24 hours at the ongoing Second National Agrarian Reform Fair in São Paulo, Brasil de Fato reported.

Created shortly after former president Dilma Rousseff's ouster, which many Brazilians regard as a parliamentary coup, “Get Out Temer” serves as a symbol of resistance to right-wing President Michel Temer’s administration. The beer is made from water, malt and hops.

Produced by an artisanal brewery located in Maria Lara, an MST encampment in the state of Parana, the malt beer takes 20 days to be ready for consumption. Transgenic ingredients found in most Brazilian beers are not included in “Get Out Temer.”
