FWIW, I drink Bridgeport all the time, regardless that I'm sending my money to TX. (I'm also sending some of that money to the few employees here in Portland that I know work there.) And I don't think Alvarez is a virulent type of Republican. So, there's that, I guess.

I do love me the Alien Amber, but only on tap... with Shiner Bock being my best substitute in a bottle. I feel a tad guilty every time I buy a 12 of Shiner, what being it a product of the nominally uber-conservative state of Texas. Of course, I have not a clue of the politics of the people making money from it's sale. I do try to align my purchases (especially luxury goods) with my belief systems (if not outright politics) but it is surprising how often I realize I've lapsed in that awareness.
