Obamamania
Brewpubs all over America have been preparing for Inauguration Day. Not only are they stocking up on brands that are popular in Hawaii and Chicago to pay tribute to the new President-Elect, but some have even brewed new Obama-themed beers! The District Chophouse and Brewery has introduced the "Barack Bock," an amber lager that clocks in at about 7% ABV. Capitol City Brewing has also brewed its own Obama-themed beer called "InaugurAle," a pale ale that gets its floral notes from Illinois wildflower honey. The Ommegang brewery was planning to introduce a beer called "Obamagang" but was forced by regulators to change the name to "Inauguration Ale." Apparently "Obamagang" is unacceptable because you can't use a name for commercial purposes without permission . . . but "Barack Bock" is perfectly legal . . .
