Bovine Beer Drinkers

May 26, 2012 By Jay Brooks

It seems we’re not the only mammals with a taste for beer. In the small Massachusetts town of Boxford a few days ago, six young cows escaped from their pen and set out on a night of partying. Lured by the music of a college graduation party down the road, they crashed the party and immediately went for the beer.

According to the Boxford Police, via Gawker:

Being uninvited didn’t seem to bother the kine, which helped itself to a few cold ones. “They went right for the beer,” said Lt. James Riter. “And then when one was done, they’d knock another one over and take care of that beer.”

And the local newspaper, the Eagle-Tribune, reported that the cows seemed to prefer Bud Light over Miller Lite.

Watch the full story below.

    LMAO – someone else sent me the news article (which said that the cows seemed to prefer Miller Lite to Bud Light – understandable, since the former is sweeter) with the comment “at least they could have provided some GOOD BEER”.

    I want the meat from the cows/pigs who get fed the spent grains from craft breweries!
