So a coworker's lovely bride is walking down the aisle of her favorite grocery store and comes across the following... immediately, she thinks of me, buys it and asks her husband to deliver it.
Should I be offended?

Shit, I wonder if that's available locally? Excuse me, gotta' go do a goole search. I'll drink that until the damn legislature gets around to putting Shiner Bock on the list of beers that can be legally sold in CT.
Rick, if it were me, I'd display that bottle proudly and prominently. Maybe ask her to make out a gift tag I could add to it.

As long as it wasn't smashed on your noggin, I figure you're ahead of the game.
However, it might be a good start to the New Year if you take the "hint", give a long look in the mirror, and answer that question yourself!
Remember: Every joke has a hint of truth in it.

Say it loud. Say it proud.
I've always embraced my inner 'arrogant bastard.'
But you should return the favor to your coworker's lovely bride: Send her a few servings of 'ignorant b*tch kool aid.'
No offense.

I bought just so I could be seen shinning the offending label in my paws.
It is quite good brew, to boot.

Actually the perfect response is to get her a case of Flying Dog's Raging Bitch Belgian IPA. It was banned from sale in Michigan, 'cause the 'bitch' apparently had too human looking tits and was considered. In reality, I believe the governor, Jennifer Granholm, just didn't want a beer named after her in the state. It is a good beer too, my daughter brought me in a couple of six packs from Virginia.
Another option would be Old Leghumper Stout, which I haven't had the opportunity to try yet.

Flattering, Rick, but there's a band by the name of "Jay Tea And The Arrogant Sons Of Bitches" that I have nothing to do with, and I'd hate to cause any confusion.
Hmm... I should at least check out their music...

Hell yes, you should be offended. As part of your recovery from the insult you should insist they bring you a case a week of the "Bastard" beer to help your psycholigical wound.

It occusr to me that the lady's husband may have concerns ...
Woman: "Honey?"
Husband: "Yes dear?"
Woman: "I saw this delicious alcoholic brew and thought of a guy I know. Be a dream and walk it over to him for me?"
Husband: (raises an eyebrow)"Sure. Should I take anything else to him? An entree? A card? Your phone number?"

My personal favorite unique local brew is Old Crustacean from Rogue.
Piraate Ale is my favorite with Bosnian food.
But Dead Guy and Arrogant Bastard will do.

It's a good ale, "oaked" which gives it a strong flavor and some tannin.
It also has the virtue of being a brew my roommate won't touch no matter how low his supply of light swill gets.
