Moosehead Breweries, founded in 1867, released on Friday a giant crate of 1,461 cans of lager — which, assuming about one beer a day, is “just enough to get through the full presidential term” of US President Donald Trump.

The “Presidential Pack” is being sold only on Moosehead’s website. It’s available to residents living in the Canadian provinces of Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia for about $3,500 CAD ($2,400 USD), including delivery.

Damn, not avaliable in my province 🫎 Also one beer a day to survive the next 4 years is... optimistic.

Assuming every day is a 1 beer day is optimistic.

As is assuming the length of trump's presidency.

That's roughly enough beer to celebrate his obituary.

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 4 points 1 month ago

came here for this.

I would need 6 crates baseline before attempting to cope.

Ah, so this is how survival prepping goes mainstream. Not quite how I expected but I'll take it.

I am pretty sure that most beers have a shelf life of 1 year maximum but it's a nice marketing idea.

If even a year. It's not something that gets better with age.

It definitely depends the beer, La Fin du Monde (fitting name) used to have an entire section for aging that I found on the archive, 2-5 years at 12.5c, 9% so helps it that way. They're (Unibroue) owned by Sleeman who is owned by Sapporo, based in Québec, recall a lot of their beer being quite decent.

Edit: Site still has aging info but it's more of a general guide over beer specific

Me and the boys will have that done over a long weekend

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unless there are 20 of you, seems like a lot for a three day weekend. Or I am a light weight.

[–] funkajunk@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You got soft hands brother

[–] infinitevalence@discuss.online 5 points 1 month ago

This looks about right for a week long fishing trip with the boys.

~~Two~~ One can o' beer a day and that's your bleeding lot

(Sorry, saw it was Moosehead and this immediately popped into my ex-Bluenoser noggin)

Canada's oldest brewery? How about North America's oldest brewery.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 22 hours ago

Yuengling's older by 30+ years

This is one beer a day from Moosehead. If all the other breweries release a similar crate, you’ll be able to float along merrily until Jan 2029.
