No More Free Beer? Oh The Humanity!

"Out of my cold, wet hands." You can't make this stuff up.

Pensioners demonstrated outside Molson's brewery here in St. John's this week after Molson clawed back their monthly ration of free beer. Molson brewery pensioners across Canada have gotten a monthly beer benefit of 6 dozen bottles a month since time, er, immemorial. Now they will be cut to, oh horror, 12 bottles a month.

As you might expect, this has not gone over well. From the comments:

"...shame... ex-union members crying in their beer... time for a beer bailout... Taking a man's beer...that's low...incredibly stupid!... bunch of drunks... Oh, the humanity!... disgusting... Molsons -- beer that is barely fit for cooking... obscene ...bunch of Hosers... Molson really needs to man up... Pay for your own beer ya bums... The only way I would drink Molson is if it were free... Cry me a river."

And then there's this:

Doh, I think I'll have a beer
Ray, the guy who brings my beer
Me, I think I'll have a beer
Fa, the distance to my beer
So, I think I'll have a beer
La, la la la la la Beer
Te, no thanks I'll have a beer
And that will bring us back to
Doh!

-Homers beer song.

Gee, I feel bad for you, boys.
