Friday’s ad is the 420th beer ad I’ve posted so in honor of that number, today’s ad is for a beer festival, the 420 Fest put on by SweetWater of Atlanta, Georgia. It was done by artist R. Marx for the 2008 festival. Happy 420!

Atlanta
Today is also the birthday of Atlanta Journal-Constitution beer columnist Bob Townsend. Although he wouldn’t tell me how old he is when I met him in Boston two years ago, I suspect because he’s even older than me. Regardless, we hit it off immediately; kindred souls, to be sure. Join me in wishing Bob a very happy birthday.
