Posts Tagged ‘blue collar beer’

With the Steelers’ just-barely Super Bowl win yesterday, it seems appropriate that our attention turn for a moment to the thousands of gallons of domestic brew that was undoubtedly being slugged from cans and bottles across the country.  From coast to coast, football fans tuned in and tipped back to enjoy one of the biggest American  traditions alongside Thanksgiving turkey and Fourth of July fireworks.  And what better blue collar city representative is there than Pittsburgh?  Now, I’ll admit I’m a little biased, since I grew up only an hour outside of this city built on the iron and steel industry, home to the Andy Warhol museum, Carnegie Mellon University, and the largest population of pigeons the world has ever known, (yes, I believe it even rivals Venice, Italy).  But c’mon.  Pittsburgh’s collar is bluer than smurf shit and they deserve a shout-out due to their victorious win over the Arizona Cardinals, whom, let’s face it, nobody cares about anyway.
