27. Pity the poor schmucks who live in Utah
Tue May 2, 2023, 02:16 PM
May 2023

A six pack of quality beer (Rogue, Dead Guy Ale) will run you $24. No break for the six pack, it’s sold by the bottle.

That beer is never refrigerated from the time the truck drops it off at the state run liquor store, until it hits your fridge. Most of the time, they stack it up in the sunshine right in front of the windows.

Recently changed the laws, so this info may be antiquated, but as recently as 5 years ago, any beer above 4.2 threshold was only available in the state run liquor stores. So the shitty bud light et al are still being refrigerated, but that’s like putting lipstick on a pig.

Of course all of that jacked up profit goes to the gay hating, race baiting, womens’ gatekeeping club we all know and love as the mormon church.

I am sooooo happy to have put that shithole state in my rear view mirror. A shame really, because there’s a lot of natural beauty in Utah. Skiing, slick rock biking, hiking, all fantastic there, too bad it’s in a state run by Neanderthal minded, hateful old men.
