In a previous life, I worked for the company who distributed Jelly Belly products in Japan. They are a great company and fine people to work with.

This was the brand of jelly beans which President Reagan kept on his desk to share with visitors . . . and one of the few I've eaten which doesn't taste like flavored sugar. They really are good.

And, who knows? A beer flavored jelly bean might get someone to give up real beer. I took the no alcohol pledge the day BO was sworn into office. I wasn't even close to being an alcoholic, but was genuinely afraid I was on the road to becoming one unless I took the pledge.

At the Reagan Library gift shop, they have all sorts of Jelly Belly/Reagan packets for sale...it appears they move pretty well.

I agree w/you, I don’t like jelly beans but go nuts for Jelly Bellys, a candy store just down the street sells them, when I drive by I can hear them calling me...

Probably a wise move -- there's a working theory I have that the incidence of alcoholism increases as tyranny increases, a sort of self-medication / self-determination that is generally denied under tyranny.
