Around SBN: Fighters React to Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

Steeler Bock Draft?

I have been enjoying all the mock drafts people have been publishing when my love of the mock drafts and my love of beer* collided and went <squirk>.

I was wondering if any breweries in and around Pittsburgh have considered brewing a special limited edition beer to tide fans over the period in time for two months before and one month after the NFL annual player selection meeting?

I am thinking a dark heady brew in an attractive bottle would be a great souvenir but as the idea is for a draft maybe just something to be sold in the local bars/taverns etc.

 

* my love of beer is tempered by my bathroom scale which keeps yelling "only one person at a time".

How has no one thought of this yet? I’m going to start a micro like now.

Go for it.

The trick will be to find a name that will not get you into trouble with the NFL or the Steelers but will still appeal to fans.

(Off) Seasoned Lager?

Naturally, it should be a black and tan.

It would be a Mike’s Hard Lemonade type drink for all the light weight Steeler fans.

Ha! Love your witty repartee.

Perhaps we should consider a “Cabin Fever Draft” for those non-playoff years too.

may not..

get brewed too often though

Things can always be worse....

by ncmt40 on Feb 17, 2010 2:43 PM EST up reply actions  

Maybe it can be brewed...

for Ravens fans. Then the dead bird would work just fine.

There could be a variety of labels for all the AFC North teams that don’t make it… except us. We will get Next Year Beer… and that should be a rare item.

How about

something with alka-seltzer for the ratbirds

Bad Andy, Good Pizza.

All I know for certain...

It will be beer brewed in STEEL vats and there will not be a dead bird on the label.

What about the picture of the raven that got run over?

Nope!

Still more credit than they deserve. Besides, it is wrong to mock the handicapped even if is only handicapped on the football field.

Opps....

Should have been nested under Steelfever’s question.

I like that idea
