Homebrewers yesterday petitioned President Barack Obama, under the Freedom of Information Act, for the release of the recipes behind his "White House Honey Ale" and other beverages brewed by staff in the White House.
WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:
Release the recipe for the Honey Ale home brewed at the White House.
Following in the footsteps of great men like George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin, Barack Obama has reportedly been
enjoying the rewards of home brewed beer. Recent reports from news
outlets like the Washington Post (August 15th, 2012) have stated that
Obama has been drinking a White House home brew Honey Ale while on the
campaign trail.
In keeping with the brewing traditions of the founding fathers,
homebrewers across America call on the Obama Administration to release
the recipe for the White House home brew so that it may be enjoyed by
all.
"I think it’s time for beer” -Franklin D. Roosevelt (March 12, 1933)
