A New York City bar owner with a full tank of gripes is selling a gallon of beer for the price of a gallon of gas — an effort to protest the Biden administration’s failure fueling historic inflation.

Patrick Hughes, owner of Scruffy Duffy's on Tenth Avenue in Manhattan, also hopes to raise awareness around the challenges that continue to devastate America's small-business owners.

"It’s just our way of calling attention to the insanity of inflation right now, especially gas prices," Hughes, a NYC pub owner for 32 years, told Fox News Digital.

[lightman]

$0.625 pints....what is it, Iron City Light?

[algore]

Ok Sure I will take that deal, why would I not ?

probably would have the guy use glass growlers though.

[Rebelbase]

Beer for $7.50/gallon? If the idiot wants to sell it that cheap and I were close enough I’d be his best customer.

[FLNittany]

Guy has owned and operated a pub in Manhattan for 32 years and we have posters here calling him a retard and stupid.

[Yo-Yo]

How is giving away beer at a tremendous loss a “protest?”

[100%FEDUP]

Looks like Miller High Life in the pic.

[PeteyBoy]

Miller High Life on draft is a good drink.

[McGruff]

Off topic but looking at the guy's picture he looks alot like me. I've never been to NYC though and don't plan to go there in the future.

[Celtic Conservative]

Are you high? If Miller had any more rice in it they would have to sell it as sake’.

I was the one that said “retard”... just to keep it straight.

[Sarcazmo]

I dunno, we should ask FLNittany... who apparently thinks it’s genius.

[jy8z]

I’ll take the champagne of beer at that price all day long.

This is NYC, where sheeple know that when you anger the government gods, they can close down your shop for any number of code violations or reinstate draconian Covid mandates.

[momincombatboots]

Taxation and inflation, the millstones of their philosophy. Create pressure, ask for a savior.. hey, it worked with covid.
They would be fools not to double down with 83% military obedience to the vax. The same obedience or more in healthcare.

How is giving away beer at a tremendous loss a “protest?” That's $116.25 per keg. I doubt an established bar is paying more than that for a keg. EC

[Vaduz]

Here in LA a bottle of beer in a bar is around $3.50 his deal sounds okay.

“Sure, it’s a gimmick,” said Hughes...

So the gallon of golden lager must be split four ways (local ordinance) — plus, each guest must purchase an appetizer or other food item.

[Sarcazmo]

Hmm. Maybe I should have read the article.
