Apparently, the Mass. governor wanted him to serve Sam Adams, however....

"Obama opted for a Bud Lite, made by Anheuser-Busch...."

No wonder Fortenberry likes the guy so much.

Doesn't anyone drink American beer anymore?

Sippin' a Yeungling

Of course.
I usually stock Henry Weinhard'ss (Hef, Blondie, reserve, Blue Boor
etc.) Reasonably priced, cheap, in cases. Then there are also the Hood
River beers, Full Sail, Fat Tire etc, Seattle's Ballard labels, etc.
Of the Mexicans I like Pacifico out of Mazatlan, and Modelo Negro.
None of these cost a fortune. All are good and all use NW hops (As
does Bud by the way), and barley or wheat. The giant hop yards South
of Yakima, Wa, supply brewers worldwide. But the locals get the best
and use the most, a good thing if you like to taste the hops that is.
