Virginia brewery releases beer inspired by vulgar complaint from disgruntled maskless customer

Beale’s Brewey, in Bedford, released the new American-style porter earlier this month, after a disgruntled customer allegedly cursed out the staff for enforcing a mask mandate in its taproom. The beer — called “Your Manager Is B----” — even takes its name from the first line of the customer’s vulgar email message.

Beale’s Brewey, in Bedford, released the new American-style porter earlier this month, after a disgruntled customer allegedly cursed out the staff for enforcing a mask mandate in its taproom. The beer — called "Your Manager Is B----" — even takes its name from the first line of the customer’s vulgar email message. "Your manager is b---- and your beer tastes like hot old orange juice," reads the original message, as it currently appears on the back of each can. The front of each can, meanwhile, is printed with a smiling photo of the general manager, whom the brewery identified only as "BC."
