    Pastor Takes Out Ad to Shame Craft Beer - Bar Retaliates

    A Pastor Took Out an Ad to Shame Craft Beer — and a Local Bar Used It to Become the 'Best Beer Bar in Texas'
    https://vinepair.com/articles/texas-craft-beer-coupon/
    When Pastor Todd Barker of Canyon, Texas took out a prominent newspaper ad in October 2016 that began with the words, “Craft beer is the devil’s craft,” it was a very on-brand decision. Barker is a Baptist teetotaler, and countering the evils of alcohol is a centerpiece of his ministry. The Canyon News on the other hand covered bar openings.

      As my old granny would say, "Hell mend him, serves him bloody right."

              Ha! Good for the Imperial Taproom.

              That article has caused me to pine for the pub even more though!

                  I hear you but hang tough. Here in the U.S. some states are easing or eliminating restrictions and it is fueling another wave of Covid.

                      It seems as if the pastor had the last laugh, since the place closed down a couple of years later due to lack of business.

                          I suppose the reasoning that Jesus drank "grape juice" instead of "craft beer" was not related to the fact that it is easier to grow grapes in the Holy Land than hops?
