Michigan has followed New Hampshire by banning the sale of Founders Brewerys Oatmeal Breakfast Stout because a baby appears on the label
The Grand Rapids-based brewery announced last week it was changing the label after the image was said to promote underage drinking.

Ridiculous.
Did yo also know that you have to age verify to go on to a brewery's site?
I looked at a site that makes hash pipes and did not have to age verify.
I did not have to age verify at the RJ Reynolds site.
Our moral compasses are so off course.

I’ve drank some Founders Oatmeal Stout a few times over the last 3-4 years and never once did I think of it as promoting underage drinking.
IF anything I would have thought the oatmeal more along with Gerber’s Baby Cereal . . . and a cute little baby on the package. Nothing more.

Also, did you know that one person in the U.S. by the name of Kent Martin gets to determine which beer labels are o.k. and which are not o.k. He has had the job for several years and all beer labels have to be approved by him before they can be sold anywhere in the United States.

My wife was nursing one of our children. He seemed to be dissatisfied with the ‘meals’.
Dr. told my wife to drink a beer or two in order to increase the nourishment of her milk.

Pfft. Just add a touch of facial hair to that image. Dare them to attack the label image of a “Little Person”.

I’ve got some colonial porter aging at the local brewery that will likely come out as being a very corn rich dry dark chocolate... Yeast had a field day after first taking a good week to come to grips with the bounty of dark molasses and local honey that was available.

I drank a double bock with a old goat (with horns)picture on the label. I hope there is not a deeper meaning to the label.

Beyond ridiculous, it also ignores the history of beer where it was the only sterile liquid to drink and kids drank it rather than the polluted water of the Middle Ages.
