BEDFORD, Va. – Beale’s Beer is responding to an internet troll with new hops. Brittany Canterbury, taproom manager, said the idea came after an incident with a customer who wasn’t following their mask policy. “We had our ‘Closed by Christmas’ [beer] from another customer who said we’d be closed by Christmas if kept enforcing our mask mandate,” said Canterbury. Beale’s Beer is snapping back with a cold brew after banning the customer from the Bedford brewery. Canterbury said they released the beer last weekend and she’s overwhelmed with having her face on a beer can.
