"i ain't never heard nobody complain 'bout the beer we got"

Obviously Alabama Representative Alvin Holmes (D) has never listened to Jeremiah mocking Coors adverts. From Reason’s Hit & Run, an excerpt from the debate on the gourmet beers bill in the Alabama House:

“What’s the matter with the beer we got? I mean, the beer we got drink pretty good, don’t it? I ain’t never heard nobody complain about the, uh, beer we have. It drink pretty good, don’t it? Budweiser. What’s the names of some of them other beers?…”

The bill, which would allow beers over the current 6% ABV limit to be sold in the state, eventually passed 48-42. But not before several apocalyptic warnings about belgian beer touching the lips of young people.
