Poll question: When Hillary finally exits, what beer should I buy to celebrate?
I am preparing to buy my first 6 pack of the year because I don't really drink. But Hillary's exit will mark a day of Independence for me. It will be a new holiday that I will celebrate annually. The 28 year cycle will be broken and I will finally look forward to having a President that I can be proud of. Anyway, what beer? I listed my favorites from the past. Not a beer connoisseur, but feel free to suggest.

1. I'm going with champagne.
I was given a bottle of Veuve Clicquot and have been saving it for the occasion! Yummy!!

22. I second that. I also suggest a 6 pack of Hoegaarden, not a hefeweizen technically but close
and you can skip the orange peal and enjoy the most refreshing crisp and clean beer you can ever imagine. Long Trail also makes a rather nice nice Belgium style white right now too.

11. So the last 28 years have been exactly the same?
What an uninformed opinion.

26. I imagine . . .
he refers to the fact that soon, for the first time in 28 years, a Clinton or Bush won't be in the White House (Including the Regan/Bush years and assuming that it won't be an Obama/Clinton ticket.

13. It is less than cool to celebrate this wonderful time with beer.
Fine lettuce and fine wine will do.

15. None of the above
My fav is a local brew, but if I have to pick something more well known, it'd be a Fat Tire (New Belgium Brewing out of Colorado).

17. Other
That kind that comes in the all white box with the stenciled lettering that just says "BEER".

That's what we always celebrated with back in my college days.

32. you would choose to dance on another's grave rather than celebrate a victory?
very sad stuff. I think I'd blame this on the lack of good beer choices. Maybe try a nice Belgian like Duvel, Hoegardden, or Leffe for a more positive outlook :)

34. Have to be an illinois favorite...Old Style!
Unfortunately, can't get it where I live.

Not that Old Style is the best beer. Just seems appropriate.
