Are hipsters to blame for rising beer prices?
Hipsters get a bad rap from a lot of people, with a recent poll finding that just 16% of Americans having a positive opinion
But now there’s one more thing hipster-haters can add to their list of complaints (besides thinking Grizzly Bear’s boring or fedoras fell out of fashion for a reason): Rising beer prices.
Research Sciences President Chuck Ellis, who has been studying beer prices, has discovered that sub-premium beer prices have jumped 6.8% over the past seven months, with craft beer prices increasing at half that rate. And what does he think the cause is?
“I believe the single biggest driver in sub-premium beer price increases is indeed specifically PBR. It has become quite fashionable.”
As an aside, with all of that said: What the heck is the definition of a hipster anyway?

The Guardian has a multi-part, video heavy media set on climate refugees in America. I’d argue that the title “first” is a misnomer and would point to the coastal communities in Texas, New Orleans, and the Carolinas who’ve been retreating from the coasts for several years. But, the point is made - that sea-level rise and coastal erosion is much more aggressive than at anytime in history. Thus, tens of thousands of people are at immediate risk, especially the poor.
The above is one minute.
The people of Newtok, on the west coast of Alaska and about 400 miles south of the Bering Strait that separates the state from Russia, are living a slow-motion disaster that will end, very possibly within the next five years, with the entire village being washed away.
The Ninglick River coils around Newtok on three sides before emptying into the Bering Sea. It has steadily been eating away at the land, carrying off 100ft or more some years, in a process moving at unusual speed because of climate change. Eventually all of the villagers will have to leave, becoming America’s first climate change refugees.
Some great work here!
We also forget to note that due to up river filtering and down stream levees the Mississippi River is not carrying nearly as much silt down to the Delta.
Happy Friday you monkeys
