Katrina: Floodweiser



During disasters, beer and soft drink makers sometimes divert their resources into producing drinking water for survivors. After the Northridge earthquake, one big brewery in LA did this; the same happens back east after floods and hurricanes. Jacob Appelbaum shot this snap of a can of "Floodweiser" -- drinking water donated by an Anheuser-Busch brewery in Texas for Hurricane Katrina victims at the Houston Astrodome. Link to can in the sexxay hand of spokesmodel Joel Johnson. (Thanks for the lore, Mike Outmesguine)
