Ohio, Oregon governor wager beer on championship game

I haven't had Total Domination to be able to compare, but I'll vouch for the booty that Ohio's governor is putting up as being a valid wager offering. I like that beer.

 

Interesting that they're wagering craft beer versus oh, say, Lake Erie perch and Pacific salmon.

 

I/S/O Gubernatorial trading partner

 

I hope Gov Kasich likes Ninkasi total domination ipa, because that is going to be coming his way come early Tuesday morning. GO BUCKS!!

 

I like Ninkasi, but couldn't the OR gov be pointed to something a little more premium? Boneyard anyone?

 

I think the idea that Ninkasi is from Eugene had something to do with it.

Also, Isn't sending alcohol technically against the law. Are they breaking the law by doing this?

 

If they crack down on this law we will all be wearing orange jumpsuits

 

they should each bet Fat Head's.

 

Walleye

 

So is sports gambling except for a few states.

 

we already have a fat heads in Oregon.

 

exactly

 

I read your post wrong. my bad, nothing to see here. move along.

 

I actually wrote it wrong and hit post too fast! meant to say they should send* each other the Fat Head's.....I had this funny image of them thinking about sending each other the same beer.

 

That too.

...and totally off topic, my son once caught a nice Walleye with a gummi worm.

 

And it's called Total Domination.

 

Go Buckeyes! Let's get the governor that Oregon beer haha

 

I imagine they'll have a high ranking state employee carry it on a commercial airliner, first class ticket, paid for by the taxpayers.

 

If you can catch them with a yellow plastic worm its not a stretch of the imagination that they would go after a gummi worm.

I mean it makes more sense than being able to catch catfish with soap.

 

Would love to see the Oregon gov walk up to FEDEX: "I'd like to send this....uh.....olive oil....to Columbus"

 

Go Buckeyes! Maybe the governor would be interested in trading with me... hell, maybe a bottle share is in order!

The governors of Ohio and Oregon -- as you would expect -- have placed a friendly wager on Monday night's National Championship game between The Ohio State University and Oregon University.
And as you would expect from a craft beer hungry state like Oregon, beer is on the line. Ohio Gov. John Kasich has offered up a six-pack of Columbus IPA, while Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber offered Ninkasi Total Domination IPA. There are other items in the bet, too, like cheese, chocolates and lasagna.

GO BUCKS, BEAT THOSE DUCKS!!
Columbus Brewing IPA - rated a "94" / outstanding here on BA

Ninkasi Total Domination IPA - rated a "83" / good - here on BA

Better beer = Better football.....right??

 

I would have bet Bodhi or something else. Regular Columbus IPA is a good beer, but kind of a lame bet.

 

Your governor is likely afraid to ship a growler

 

I'm surprised he'd be willing to ship beer at all

 

Well Kasich is from Columbus, not NEOH so that might explain the choice. Great Lakes is the most important to Ohio's beer identity though, I think.

 

Likely the two governors are choosing well known beers from the capitols of their respective states - and they are not really craft beer guys....that would be my guess.....

GO BUCKS, WHOOP SOME DUCK ASS!
