Bear downs 36 beers, passes out at campground
When state Fish and Wildlife agents recently found a black bear passed out on the lawn of Baker Lake Resort, there were some clues scattered nearby — dozens of empty cans of Rainier Beer.
The bear apparently got into campers’ coolers and used his claws and teeth to puncture the cans. And not just any cans.
“He drank the Rainier and wouldn’t drink the Busch beer,” said Lisa Broxson, bookkeeper at the campground and cabins resort east of Mount Baker.
Fish and Wildlife enforcement Sgt. Bill Heinck said the bear did try one can of Busch, but ignored the rest. The beast then consumed about 36 cans of Rainier.

So an animal known to eat rotten salmon, bloated moose corpses, and weeks-old garbage turns it’s nose up at Busch beer.

Even the bears have standards…
Adult male black bears weigh between 126-551lbs, so average around 350 maybe. A lot less than I would have thought. Based off that I’d think a bear could drink double what an average man could drink. BUT that’s probably the first time the bear drank alcohol. The first time a person gets drunk 3 beers is usually enough to feel pretty inebriated. So I’d say that bear was absolutely hammered, but still discerning enough to pick out which beers he liked better.
Clearly, the bear didn’t go to Wazzu.
Give that bear a sponsorship!
Thinking about it, it would’ve been far more damning for Busch if the bear had opened \*only\* a single can of Busch beer from the cooler.
Wow, bear is a beer snob. Frankly, when it’s free, I don’t care what beer it is. I will drink it. Probably.
Raaiiiiiiiiinnieeeerrrrrr
Beeeeeeerrrrrrrr
Think I bought some weed off that bear. Cool dude.
Even the bears in this state are hipsters.
