So I should be drinking beer instead of what my doctor prescribed for my aching foot????
After 36 of 'em, you won't give a rat's-rear-end WHAT your doctor said. (Do camping bears have inflammatory problems? I think not...)
Bear downs 36 beers, passes out at campground
Rainier, not Busch, the beverage of choice for thirsty black bear

BAKER LAKE, Wash. - When state Fish and Wildlife agents recently found a black bear passed out on the lawn of Baker Lake Resort, there were some clues scattered nearby — dozens of empty cans of Rainier Beer.
The bear apparently got into campers’ coolers and used his claws and teeth to puncture the cans. And not just any cans.
“He drank the Rainier and wouldn’t drink the Busch beer,” said Lisa Broxson, bookkeeper at the campground and cabins resort east of Mount Baker.
