I’m just saying, if I’m heading to a wedding and there’s no beer on tap, I’m gonna be a bit disappointed.

That is why I am shocked at the decision not to have beer served at the royal wedding reception.

It was reported by the Daily Mirror that there will be wine and champagne served, but no beer. Why? According to the British tabloid newspaper: it’s not an appropriate drink to serve in the presence of The Queen.

Most of the weddings that I have been to, it’s assumed that beer will be at the reception. It’s 95% of the reason for going.

Now, maybe this is just one of those dumb hyped-up stories that the media is making up. Consider the source. The Daily Mirror is a tabloid.

As for the argument that beer is not an appropriate drink for royalty, consider this.

Budweiser = The King Of Beers
Miller High Life = The Champagne of Beers
if not beer…
Royal Crown Cola?

They all seem to fit the royalty theme.

I could understand not wanting Samuel Adams beer at the royal wedding, considering his role in the American Revolution. I’m not sure I can support this wedding if beer is not allowed.
