    I’m in. Sounds like it could be a really good German beer. The can is cool and if they can pack them 1 up 1 down you could get 24 cans in a small area.

    Was this mentioned again today during earnings?

    Enjoy

    Thank God. I was nervous that no one had disrupted the beer space enough and am glad that someone new will be manufacturing beer fit for humanities future in space.

    have to credit Elon with being a premier showman.

    As I understand it, there are a number of other steps a company has to take between trademarking a brand name and "manufacturing" beer.

    That appears to have been a private label sort of deal (contract-distilled?) with two Mexican distilleries -
    Nosotros Tequila and Destiladora Del Valle De Tequila.

    But since Pabst is leaving Molson Coors as their primary contract brewer, MC is going to have some spare capacity in their US breweries. Heck, they're already partnering with Coca-Cola for Topo Chico Hard Seltzer.

    First a distilled spirit and now beer. What about a wine?
    I got the name - Elon Muskcatel :stuck_out_tongue:

    I'm sure this confirms it: Elon Musk is the first, real-life Bond villain.

    Where the fuck is Roger Moore when we need him most?

    It's destined to be the in-flight beverage for Space-X. Just last month, they had 4 civilians orbit the earth for 3 days! Gotta have something to drink up there to help pass the time.

    Forget Tesla and Elon Musk. They’re tanking on a major deal in this area. Selling…and SCRAPPING…literally unused equipment that was paid for by the State for them to manufacture solar panels and bring jobs. Tens of millions of dollars pocketed by that (insert not nice words here), only to have it go bust. He’s laughing at everyone. Doge Coin? People are somehow mesmerized by his BS, but he’s really just a manipulative tw@t, IMO. I wouldn’t drink his beer for free.

    Phewwww, I was afraid the thread would proceed with no ad hominem attacks on Mr. Musk. Thanks!
