    Cue the arguments between people who like and people who dislike Metallica.

    I don't know why people find this especially disturbing

    Newsflash, the music industry is very much a business, and you're naïve if you think that bands as big as Metallica aren't seeking out deals like these.

    If Southern Tier did this they would label it as 2xDoucheBag

    Not that big of a deal. This is clearly in "I don't give a shit" territory.

    So Metallica wanted to make an extra buck...why not? What, you think the band gives a shit about craft beer?

    I have to admit the can design is kind of neat... may not care so much for the contents :wink:

    MORE BEER

    Can't remember the last time I went out of my way to get the king of beer. Probably when I was broke and had to use my Target card. But I wouldn't turn it down. Helluva lot better than the light options. Bud Heavy, that's what some call it. And I do love some old Metallica, don't forget how great they were.

    Sadly I take this as more of Metallica being lazy than selling out. Iron Maiden's Trooper beer is a whole lot cooler in my opinion than Bud.

    Cliff has turned over in his grave so many times that he could be used as an alternative energy source.

    Thank goodness its limited....let's hope it ends soon.

    I'm going to blame Lars for this one.

    Does this mean Mustaine is going to pair up with MGD?

    This. I definitely like bud heavy on occasion, although I vastly prefer it out of the bottle to the can. I can see myself enjoying a 12 pack of this for a day if I happen to see it somewhere. Can't stand how terrible their music got, but the first 4 albums will probably remain great to me til death.
