The (return of the) Best Shittiest Beer Fest

The sun is a shinin'. The birds are a chirpin'. The barbecues are a cookin'. And the beer is a flowin'. The Rainy Season is drying up, my friends. But that doesn't mean that we can afford all of those swanky summertime brews. So when the wallet goes flat, what's the beer to swallow instead of to spit?

Welcome to the return of "The Best Shittiest Beer Fest," where we seek to find...well, the best tasting cheap beer (and also the worst tasting expensive beer). This event is a blind taste test of various "shitty" beers, where each beer is scored anonymously, tabulated, statis-tic-alized, and ranked. Do you really think your favorite shitty beer is worth your dime? Put it to the test! Do you really think your "quality" $7 'sixer of Heineken is worth the fluff? Put it to the test!

(1) Just choose a beer from the list on the flier (click on the picture to make it bigger), (2) make sure no one else has already claimed your favorite shitty beer, (3) POST A COMMENT ON THIS BLOG to claim "your" beer, (4) reach into your pocket for the $1 admission fee (Portland Parks liquor permit), and (5) go to Wilshire Park, NE 33rd & Skidmore on SATURDAY, MAY 13th at 5PM. And since shitty beer goes well with non-shitty food, bring some barbecue grub (we will need volunteers to bring a couple grills). ...But there's more! After we've had enough shitty beer (IMPOSSIBLE!), follow us to the KENNEDY SCHOOL (7 blocks north on 33rd) to end the night with a non-shitty pint.

The person responsible for bringing the "Best Shittiest Beer" gets a soggy certificate, a bottle of Tums, and a free pint (or two) at the Kennedy School! ...and ALL of the leftover shitty beer, which there will be plenty!

Rain or Shine (but it can't really rain in May, can it?).
I hope to smell you there.
