Authorities are hoping to break up what must be quite the party after beer thieves made off with almost $26,000 worth of suds from a delivery truck.

A semi trailer loaded with cans and bottles of Miller beer was stolen from a trucking company in Richfield, according to a Washington County Sheriff's Department report. The trailer was found four days later — sans beer — at an Oak Creek trucking firm.

"Can't get enough of that wonderful Duff!"

[Beer, I mean. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.]

I understand that the Dimorats were having a convention and ran out of liquid backbone........

Since it is OK to take others money by taxing them to death then it was OK for the Rats to take the beer....

I would bet a penny that if the cops look hard enough they will see an IOU from Howweird Deaniac somewhere.

LOL

I guess the Beer Looter Guy is off the hook - he only takes Heinekin.

"Why would they steal Miller?"

They needed to fill their stein.

Wasn't me.

Wasn't [hic] me.

Bush's Fault....

"Which was it - Miller or beer?"

Exact same thought I had.

[rzeznikj at stout]

What beer? :^)

Seriously though, this is a funny story. Though if they wanted beer, they could have stolen a Leinie's truck...

You think Iron City was bad, you should have tried a Dixie.

And this is not for you, but *psssttttt to all you beer snobs. I hope all your micro-brews get skunky...{-;

[GSlob]

I do not do micro-brews. The best beer I've ever tasted is "Krusovice" - dark Czech nectar, supposedly started by emperor Rudolph II in the mists of time. In comparison with it "Iron City" is not even an urine.

Nobody has yet mentioned Milwaukee's Best"?.

My dad used to drink "Beast" all the time.

Up in Canada, the cheap U.S. domestic stuff is sold as a premium import and is priced as such.

Does anybody remember the Great Canadian Beer Strike of '86?.

There are reportedly a lot of "hiccups" and "belches" being heard in Klinton's neighborhood.
