In NJ, at a brewery, you can give away, gratuitiously, 4 4oz samples to a patron, after having received a tour within the last year. It is illegal, according to the NJABC, to have mug clubs, discount cards, or offer advertized giveaways of beer. So, king demented woodchuck, is breaking the law.

A person has lost every iota of his self-respect when he’s willing to sell himself for a free beer.

I can see a drunk Uncle asking for another round:

“Give me another shot, make that two!”

Ahh, like in the old days when we would give blood then get smashed on a shot and a beer.

So Crispy Creme offers free donuts, this place offers free beer if you allow the government to give you a shot. All in the name of health of course. This is 2021 in a nutshell.

A reliable source tells me that alcohol temporarily weakens one’s immune system. So the booze is counter productive. With the stupidity sweeping the nation, this does not surprise me.

I can be bought—for a million bucks.

So now that we have agreed I have no self-respect, we just need to quibble on the price.

I don’t think people realize that in NJ, “shot and a beer” involves gunfire from drunk drivers.

What happens when that’s the beer that puts them over the limit and they kill someone on the way home?
