What Your Beer Says About Your Politics

Beer and Politics. They don't always mix.

In honor of Binghamton On Tap this Friday and Saturday and the Presidential election on November 8th, let's take a light (light beer) look at what your choice of beer says about your politics and how you'll vote.

According to those who get paid to ask beer/political questions they say, Americans (as opposed to illegal aliens, I guess) who drink Dos Equis are middle of the road Independents.

That surprises me because if Doe Equis is good enough for the "most interesting man in the world" and his stance on beer (I don't often drink beer but when I do it's Dos Equis). I would think a Dos Equis drinker would know exactly who he/she wants to vote for.

Heineken drinkers are Democratic voters while Samuel Adams drinkers are Republican, and more likely to vote.

A Coors Light drinker is delusional, because it's not really beer. Okay, okay, I made that one up. The election is just under 11 months away but remember, they don't let you drink in the voting line.

By the way, it's not too late to get your Binghamton On Tap tickets. Order below and pick the session that fits you best.
