Yesterday South End restaurant Club Cafe announced that it would no longer serve Sam Adams due to the brewer's association with the parade. In an open letter on its facebook page Club Cafe stated that they were "disappointed that Sam Adams does not understand that the organizers of the St. Patrick's Day Parade continue to demonstrate that they do not respect LGBT Irish Americans by excluding LGBT members of this community from openly marching in the St.Patrick's Day Parade."
This morning Sam Adams released a statement that said, in part "We share these sentiments with Mayor Walsh, Congressman Lynch and others and therefore we will not participate in this year’s parade."

Don’t you all understand? St Patrick’s whole mission was to promote anal sex, wasn’t it? Oh, wait; that was Boy George....
Anyone try one of the Sweetwater beers?
Nope, no Yuengling. Drank that in college in the late 70s because it was 99 cents a 6 pack.
Here’s the story of st Patrick. It is a true story:
http://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=89
And he is who is honored on st Patrick’s day. And Catholics believe that he lives, as Jesus teaches, after death, sharing in His resurrection, and tgat he, st pat, can speak to and appeal to Jesus in prayer and petition, and that there is a blessing over this parade.
Here is what the church says about homosexuality:

St Patrick helped the Irish. He led them out of paganism into the light of faith. Not even all the drinking can eradicate that. He saw worse pagan worship than the mayor and Sam Adams Beer co are exhibiting here
That they think they are bigger than the faith, that’s pride. They are ignorant of history that they’re doomed to repeat
They are worshipping money and earthly power. I won’t buy their beer, and I’m glad to be of Doyle ancestry and not of Walsh, no offense, and I’m sure there are as many faithful walshes as Doyle’s, its just a fleeting sentiment today
But whatever I do, it will be nothing compared to what they’ll have to explain one day, using homosexuals and their misguided power play in order to gain power, and mis using a great saint to do it
They are the pagans he himself converted and they are completely idiotic and likely as ignorant of st Patrick, his life and influence and true power as any green beer drinking idiot
Up until very recently, St. Patrick’s Day was not a big deal in Ireland itself:
In modern-day Ireland, St. Patrick’s Day has traditionally been a religious occasion. In fact, up until the 1970s, Irish laws mandated that pubs be closed on March 17. Beginning in 1995, however, the Irish government began a national campaign to use St. Patrick’s Day as an opportunity to drive tourism and showcase Ireland to the rest of the world. Last year, close to one million people took part in Ireland ‘s St. Patrick’s Festival in Dublin, a multi-day celebration featuring parades, concerts, outdoor theater productions, and fireworks shows.

I don’t always drink beer, but when I do, it won’t be Sam Adams.
Happening more and more!
Decent, normal people need to start saying "enough is enough" as a group.
FU Sam Adams.
I thought St Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland.
"Get behind?"
Ew!
My absolute favorite beer is Blue Moon. Used to drink Sam Adams. No more.
Isn’t this the same people that ran a commercial deleting the words “Under God” from the pledge?
They love to strut their perversion in any public parade. The reason for the parade is not important.
I always thought this guy looked a little gay.
Christ with me, Christ before me,
Christ behind me, Christ within me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ at my right, Christ at my left,
Christ in the fort,
Christ in the chariot seat,
Christ on the deck,
Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks to me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.
— from the prayer of St. Patrick
This is a beautiful prayer. Maybe the organizers of the parade should make it mandatory that everyone prays it before the parade starts. I bet a lot of people would drop out before saying this prayer.
Boston Beer Company is, as far as I can see, a "big boy" of its own right.
You don’t want to know what that sediment is, at the bottom of the Weissbeer.

We can't stand wormy little corporate titans like Jim Koch, chairman of the publicly-held Boston Beer Company, which distributes Samuel Adams products.
As TSG first reported, the 53-year-old Koch (pronounced Cook) was the so-called Grand Marshal of the "Sex for Sam" stunt that got radio shock jocks Opie and Anthony canned. In fact, Koch was actually present in WNEW-FM's Manhattan studio and played a key role in the public sex contest--though he and the beer company didn't admit that until TSG obtained audio clips from the controversial August 15 show.
Still don't drink it.
Sodom Adams Beer...
Well, not a big deal, if you don’t think honoring a great man with thanksgiving to God and solemnity as opposed to commercialism and alcohol sales is a big deal
The commercialism is the problem
March 19th is a very holy day in the Church, honoring our greatest Saint
But you would have to look it up to find out what it is and who it is we will celebrate. And tgere are no lobbies clamoring for takeover because commercialism hadn’t crept in
Dublin should’ve kept it ‘no big deal’ just mass like every other saints day
