And finally… bad taste

A polygamy-themed beer has been rejected for sale in North Carolina because “polygamy is illegal”.

The beer, Polygamy Porter, is already sold in at least 20 other US states – including Utah.

Wasatch Brewery had filed a request to sell the beer in the state, Fox 13 reports, but it was found that it “represents something illegal.”

The North Carolina Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission said in a statement: “The NC ABC always gives thoughtful consideration to each label and uses the criteria outlined in the statutes as the basis for every rejection or approval.”

It added that “representing something illegal is undignified and in bad taste”.
