Founders Brewing Co., a Michigan craft brewery, made a special beer label for its pale ale to commemorate the christening of the USS Gerald R. Ford. Newport News Shipbuilding approached the brewery about creating the label marking the Navy's newest aircraft carrier's christening on Nov. 9, in Newport News, Va.

Pretty cool. If it's a Founders, it'll likely be very good.

Very cool. However, the first thing that popped into my head when I read the thread title was a video of someone with a beer stumbling down the last few steps of an airplane staircase... :whistle:

The Gerry Ford? Who woulda thunk it!! CVN 76 is my only love when it comes to a carrier.

Peace Through Strength, Baby!

When it comes to guided missile cruisers......the CG 54 (USS Antietam) is my fav....since my cousin who is a LCDR is now assigned to her. Hooyah VIPERS!
