Senate Candidate Brews Up Handy Beer

Like all politicians, Oregon Senate hopeful Steve Novick wants to be seen as the kind of guy you’d like to have a beer with.

And Novick hopes it’s a “Left Hook Lager,” a beer concocted for the campaign by a Eugene-based brewery and named in honor of the metal prosthesis the candidate sports in lieu of his left hand.

Since it’s a political story, somebody’s got to be whining about something.

Political opponents noted Tuesday that Novick’s campaign has failed to obtain the requisite permits from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission to sell the alcohol.
