We decided to torture ourselves for a good cause and participate in the Rock 'n' Roll Portland ½ Marathon this Sunday. Today, this email arrived in our Inbox:
Enjoy a Post-Race Beer, Compliments of Mich Ultra!
Bring your photo ID!
Michelob Ultra will be giving out one free beer per participant over 21 years old at the Finish Line. Oregon State law requires you to have photo ID to receive your beer.
Plan ahead and have your photo ID to celebrate with a cold beer at the Finish Line.
Rock On!
Do these guys know that we don’t drink that stuff here? This is the Pacific NW! Why didn't they contract with one of the larger Portland players like Widmer or MacTarnahan’s/Pryamid for some decent beer? They’re assuming people that run must drink beer with no carbs, calories or flavor. Wrong. If there's a beer Jesus out there can you please have a nice IPA waiting for us at the finish line? We’re running 13 miles and being rewarded with a Mich Ultra is an insult in these here parts. Of course, we’ll probably suck one down regardless of what we're feeling right now.
We found the Beer Advocate ratings of Mich Ultra amusing: http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/29/3734
