Outraged Beer Drinkers Lash Out at Owner of America’s Oldest Brewery for Supporting Trump
The owner of the oldest brewery in America is feeling the backlash after endorsing Trump.
On Monday, the Republican presidential nominee’s son Eric Trump visited Yuengling’s brewery in East Norwegian Township while campaigning in Pennsylvania, the Reading Eagle reported. Following the tour Yuengling’s fifth-generation owner Dick Yuengling Jr., voiced his support of the candidate.
“Our guys are behind your father,” Yuengling said. “We need him in there.”
Since then Yuengling drinkers have angrily taken to social media to disavow the beer.
The outrage machine is running on full throttle.
Thank you to Dick Yuengling for an amazing tour of the oldest brewery in the U.S! @Yuengling_Beer #PottsvillePA #MAGA pic.twitter.com/XrGVbbOiI3

.@Yuengling_Beer I assure you, I will see to it that every gay bar in DC tosses your product and removes your lines.

Way to go @Yuengling_Beer ! You just alienated me and tons of people who drank you. I will never drink you again. Peace

Even elected politicians are making hay out of the endorsement.

“Gayborhood?” Is that a thing adult human beings say now? If so, they shouldn’t do that anymore.
@PhillyTalk @ChrisStigall @Yuengling_Beer Wow. Times are kinda tough, odd that @BrianSimsPA would support a move that could hurt PA workers.

Faux outrage and political opportunism are a harsh mistresses, but the pro-Trump contingent will likely make up for any lost sales.
Any business you’ve lost by endorsing Trump will be made up tenfold by my purchases for decades to come. @Yuengling_Beer

I am a Yuengling drinker. I like the beer and the great American success story behind it. As much as I dislike Trump, I don’t think I am to the point of boycotting the products of Trump endorsers. I suspect the outrage is mainly from Trump’s left wing detractors.
There are products and businesses that won’t spend money on because of political affiliations but I am generally opposed to organized boycotts. If you choose not to give someone your business because you oppose their politics, that’s your right, but if you’re going to do it just do it and shut up about it. If I had to boycott every product associated with a political cause I didn’t like, I would probably starve to death naked in the dark.
Let’s face it. Come Friday, January 20, 2017 the President of the United States will either be Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump.
This is no time for any of us to be placing limits on our alcoholic beverage choices.
