LATROBE, Pa. -- A Pennsylvania brewery is raising a glass to Joe Paterno.

The Duquesne Brewing Company said Monday it's rolling out a brew honoring the late Penn State football coach.

The Vienna-style lager, which will be available in mid-August, will come in 12-ounce cans featuring Paterno's image and accomplishments.

The brewery says it's working with Paterno's family on the beer. A portion of the proceeds will go to charities the family supports.

The beer is being brewed and bottled at Duquesne's brewery in Latrobe, hometown of Paterno's widow, Sue.

Penn State fired Paterno in November 2011 amid fallout from the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.

He died two months later while battling lung cancer.

The NCAA in January restored 111 wins negated as punishment for the scandal, making Paterno again the game's winningest coach with 409 victories

May the beer taste worst than Billy Beer.

The first beer marketed directly to 8-14 year old boys.

If offered one of these beers I would politely decline. If pressed as to why, I wouldn't be so polite.

 

[OttoMets]

It's made with bits of real Paterno, so you know it's good.

As I've stated many times since the scandal originally broke, the culture surrounding that program is reprihensible and beneath contempt, and needed to be burned to the ground to cleanse it. Clearly they haven't learned anything and nothing has changed in the aftermath of the scandal.

Disgusting.

I can see the marketing slogan now...

"Paterno Ale - Sorry, we don't sell it in bottles - we only give it to you in the can."

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

Definitely a twist top

 

[orangefog]

Have you ever wondered what the tears of a thousand little boys tastes like, well we've got your answer in every 12 ounce can. Mmmm...delicious.

 

[NKR1978]

There's some real good stuff in this thread. Well done.

Perfectly stated. They are filling up their 100K seat stadium, their recruiting is back to being top notch, they have all 85 scholarships back and they are bowl eligible. Yep the NCAA showed them

End thread.

I'd like to take full credit for it, but Bob and Tom's "Dicken's Cider" skit was my inspiration.

My only hope is that Franklin is a horrible coach and they're just playing for 4th with Rutgers and Maryland. With Harbaugh, Dantonio and Meyer in their division I doubt they'll do much better than 3rd most years.
