So, I was in the middle of harvesting my $CUB tokens when the clock struck beer o'clock!

It became immediately apparent to me that something needed to be done. I couldn't be late for beer o'clock; it would be most uncivilized.

I ran to the local grocery store and picked up a Pantera Brewery craft Summer Ale (because what could be more appropriate?)

Pantera Ale is a pretty light, 27 IBU (mild bitter taste) Ale. 4.8% alcohol .
Perfect for #Beersaturday. It's very good to start the afternoon with.

Pantera

Pantera = Panther en español

not to be confused with Pantera the band, which is NOT LIGHT and by the way has a song called "prehibernation" which I believe is where $CUB token is at the moment:

Pantera Beer is brewed right here in Fraijanes Guatemala. A small town on the outskirts of Guatemala City which sits at 1800 meters above sea-level. Which is apparently awesome for growing coffee (and guess what else).

BEER! that's right

Which is brewed by these non-metal looking gentlemen

Luis Escobar and Gonzalo Menendez.

These guys may not seem like superheroes to the naked eye. But they are actually running a pretty awesome program with Wild Life Conservation Society to protect wild Jaguars (Panthera Onca) in the Guatemalan Jungle.
for every beer sold, they donate a portion to WCS to help with the conservation efforts in the Petén Jungle where the Mayan city of Tikal is located.
