(Redlands, CA) – The Donkey Punch Brewery. Yup. Per the Press-Enterprise:
The Donkey Punch Brewery is ready for its grand opening from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. at 2351 W. Lugonia Ave. in Redlands. Pool contractor-turned- brewmeister Tony Theodoridis, 42, is pouring 10 of his 13 creations, including Jackass IPA, Watermelon Wheat, Lemon Caliente and Vanilla Blonde.
Not sure if reporter, Laurie Lucas, had any idea what “donkey punch” means when she covered this story but this is what Wikipedia would have told her had she looked it up…
Donkey punch is a slang term for a fictitious sexual practice supposedly performed during doggy style sex, particularly anal sex. The purported practice involves the penetrating partner punching the receiving partner on the back of the head or in the lower back to make the receiving partner’s anal or vaginal passage tense up, thus increasing the pleasure of the penetrative partner.
Now that you have that image in your mind, enjoy that Watermelon Wheat.
I take issue with them calling it a “ficticious” practice…
Consider this. Anyone can add to sites like Wikipedia or Urbandictionary; so, while Donkey Punch should have done some homework before they chose the name, don’t vilify them before you look up the meaning of some other brewery names. Go to urbandictionary.com and look up Ritual from Ritual Brewery, or Hanger from Hanger 24 brewery, or Stone from Stone Brewery, or probably the best example, Anchor from Anchor Steam Brewery. Then, before you name your kid John, Peter, or Randy, you may want to do a quick Google search on those, too.
From a homebrewer who supports small breweries, cheers!
