drink up

Flying Dog Brewery out of Aspen has just released Gonzo Imperial Porter in honor of the late Doctor of Journalism, Hunter s. Thompson. The label feature's Ralph Steadman's artwork and contains the quote, "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity, but they've always worked for me." A portion of the sales generated from the new brew will go to the 150 foot tall 'Gonzo Fist' statue to be erected at Owl Farm Estate in Woody Creek, CO. The statue will house the canon from which Hunter's ashes are to be blasted at his memorial service sometime in august.
