But there are some similarities in that both beers are the best-selling flagship brew in each company’s portfolio. To me goes the beer.Īs far as this week’s two beers go, as a lager and an ale they aren’t really competitive it’s apples and oranges. I’ll select one of the specialty beers of whichever brewery wins on Sunday–so to speak–and make it my next TAP Beer of the Week. Anchor president John Dannerbeck not only agreed to pour Brooklyn’s Sorachi Ace beer from this Monday to tomorrow, but outfit tour guides in Giants jerseys:Īt the Anchor Brewing tasting room, pouring Brooklyn's Sorachi Ale while wearing a Giants' jersey ![]() Hindy, who obviously has a gambling problem, threw down a similar wager with Anchor Brewing in San Francisco before the Giants-49ers tilt for the NFC title. As this video shows, the bet was paid off, and Hindy made a prescient comment about the two teams meeting again in the playoffs: Gauging by the amount of coverage the wager has already received, the publicity will presumably help salve the wounds of the defeated, and I’m willing enough to lard on some more.įor the two breweries, this is actually Super Bowl Wager II, since the same terms were put forth for Super Bowl XLII in 2008, and even non-fans like me know the Giants dusted off the previously undefeated Patriots 17-14, a stunning upset.

Despite outing my anti-football stance in this rant, careful readers will have noted I’m pretty much okay with gambling.
