How about a little Friday Butt Monkey?

ButtMonkeyBeer Founded in 2003, Buttmonkey Beer, LLC was incorporated in Delaware and their headquarters are currently in Atlanta, GA.  Out of such a fine corporate name came this fine example of beer marketing, Butt Monkey Beer, Chimp Chiller Ale!  You may ask why we’re talking Butt Monkey on our little local beer blog..and the answer is…because it’s local.  Brewed & packaged by our very own Lion Brewery, this brand has actually been successful.  Somewhere along the line the beer was renamed to Bad Monkey and continues to be sold in many states, including PA (Galli Distributing in New Kensington, PA).  The original bottle features such catchy slogans as:
 
“Get off your butt and grab a monkey.” 
“Born of irreverence for your enjoyment.” 
“We know it’s a chimp, just drink the beer.” 
“A fine ale brewed to perfection for the more discriminating taste.”

BadMonkey continues to be brewed by Lion Brewery and now includes four other beverages, Ape Ale, Lemur Lager, Baboon Brew and Orangutan Red.  Of course I couldn’t resist inventing my own suggested BadMonkey brews…
