Thirsty Thursday Beer Painting #98, November 10, 2016, Bourbon County Brand Stout by Goose Island Beer Co.

🎶Hey, Chicago, what do you say? The Cubs are gonna win today. They’re singing… go, Cubs, go!🎶

Good news Chicago, Bourbon Country Brand Stout from Goose Island Beer Co. is only a few weeks from its release date.  This Fall has been full of surprises, but the Bourbon County stout is a staple that we can rely on.  It has been over 100 years since the Cubs have been World Series Champions, and the curse of the goat is over.  Phew!  Cubs fans can sigh in relief.  I know most of the people in Chicago are upset over this current election result, but I hope you listen to my favorite president, Barack Obama, when he said that we are all on the same team.  Hillary, a Chicago native, even told us to give the new President-Elect a chance, and hey, if he screws up, we have our Constitution to back us up.  So let that black cloud of doubt go.  Like the curse of the goat, this too shall pass.  Another candidate will run in four years.  Part of the beauty of America, besides our baseball, is that for over 200 years Americans have watched the change of political power without any violence.  So pop open a bottle of Bourbon County stout and rewatch game seven of the World Series on TiVo.  America will weather this and possibly still be great when it’s all done.  THREE CHEERS FOR THE CUBS, and another for Bourbon County Brand Stout.

The original painting sold, but you can purchase limited-edition, signed prints, or order a custom beer painting at my Etsy shop RealArtIsBetter.
