"Bastard" is Verboten, but "Bitch" is Copacetic?




Alas, if you have a hankering for "Dirty Bastard" ale, you'll have to purchase this gourmet sounding alcohol outside the state of Alabama; however, if you will settle for "Fat bastard" wine, you're in luck.



It seems some former embodiment of the Alabama Beverage Control (ABC) previously approved "Fat bastard." An older version of the board also approved "Raging Bitch" beer.



We don't know who intended to distribute "Dirty Bastard" beer, but it looks like they may have adequate grounds for a lawsuit if they wish to pursue one. We also question why a beer with the name "Bitch" in its title was ever approved. Welcome to Alabama the beautiful...and mentally deranged.

Thanks to our friend Phillip Oliver (Dirt Therapy), we discovered another fantastic Shoals blog--Amy C. Collins. We're linking it starting today. Enjoy!

We've also added a section at the bottom of this blog with links to The Connection's "Shoals Sex Offender" articles. It's directly above Shoals Crime, and we'll be adding to it each week.
