Hey, I like sourdough! But other than that, the list of “FUCK [whatever]” on the back of the can is pretty bang-on, including such 2020-related items that can fuck fight off as “BUSHFIRES”, “MURDER HORNETS”, “COVID” (of course), and “ISOLATION”, ending with “THE MAYAN CALENDAR (for getting the year wrong)” and “FOUR MONTHS (of this year still remaining)”. Indeed. Drinks easily for the high ABV, and definitely a requirement as the Flames shit the bed in Game 6. (15/20)
