If Your Favorite Yankee Was a Beer He Would Be…

I was inspired to write this post after I found this article on the Baseball Think Factory comparing some players around the league to beers. It was a good article even though he called Mariano Rivera a Sam Adams Boston Lager. But it got me to start wondering who some of the Yankees would be if they were beers...read more

For instance, if Derek Jeter were a beer, what beer would he be?

Jeter would be Budweiser. All-American and even though not everyone loves him you can’t deny his popularity and consistency.

If Robinson Cano were a beer, what beer would he be?

Cano would be Presidente because their both laid back, smooth, and Dominican.

If Jorge Posada were a beer, what beer would he be?

Posada would be Delirium Tremens because anybody who pisses on his own hands needs a strong beer.

If Alex Rodriguez was a beer, what beer would he be?

A-Rod would be a Zima because…do I need to explain this one?

If Nick Johnson was a beer, what beer would he be?

Johnson would be a Guinness because you have to let it sit for a while (get it? it’s a injury joke).

If Alfredo Aceves were a beer, what beer would he be?

Aceves would be a Dos Equis because he’s the most interesting man in the world.

If Andy Pettitte were a beer, what beer would he be?

Pettitte would be a Deer Park water. I know it’s not beer, but Pettitte is christian and from Deer Park, Tx.

If Phil Hughes were a beer, what beer would he be?

Hughes would be Natty Ice because even World Series winners drink beer out of measuring cups.

That’s what I came up with, can anyone else come up with more?
