    Decatur: Your Malt Beverage Alternative?

    Decatur Metro | October 20, 2009

    Days after the Grange announced its changing its name because of ridiculous threats from The National Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry, “law-abiding Decatur resident” Lain Shakespeare blog-vents his severe irritation with Decatur over at the Dirty South Beer Club for the city’s “mallternative” marketing campaign, which he believes was stolen from the true “MALTernative”: Mike’s Hard Lemonade.

    Amen.  This flagrant identity theft has gotten way out of hand.  I mean, has no one else noticed that the city stole their name from this blog!?

      Don’t get Shakespeare riled, he’s one mean dude. I hide under my desk when I see him coming.

      HI-larious, Mr. Shakespeare. And I really wish the Comers had told the National Grange where to stick it– IMO, they would’ve had a better than good chance in court of having a judge agree with them!

      cubalibre: thanks!

      DarenW: watch it. You know what I’m capable of.

      Other citizens of Decatur: don’t be surprised to find your favorite store stock Mike’s or Smirnoff Ice on future Terrific Thursdays.
