"Ruppert’s Knickerbocker Beer—just in time for the founder’s birthday, Marth 4th!!"
Your captions were as sweet and delicious as cold beer on a hot summer’s day!
And we knew just who to ask to serve as guest judge: beer enthusiast and information technology specialist Crystal Brooks. Even though Crystal modestly claims to still be a novice when it comes to home brewing, we knew that she had the discerning palate to choose a winner.
Congratulations to Denise! Check your email for a discount code for 15% off in the eStore. Crystal was impressed that you correctly identified the beer as Ruppert’s Knickerbocker Beer, and she was delighted that you connected the contest date to Rupert’s birthday. We raise a glass to Denise’s captioning skills and Rupert’s birthday!
This photograph comes from the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and the original caption reads: “Sgt. Henry Klein sells T/4 Ralph Lohman his ration of American beer. Seven cans were rationed in Sept. but future deliveries were uncertain.”
Today’s photograph looks like the result of several cases of Knickerbocker beer. Put your wittiest caption in the comments below!
