The got milk? advertisements have really gone beyond just ads, they're now a part of pop culture. They're so recognizable that all they need is a person with a milk moustache. There's no need to even include the question or other text. Another effect of the commercial is imitations and spoofs, and that's what this patch is. The Got Beer Patch turns what was a public service announcement talking about the benefits of milk into an ad for the benefits of beer. It's found in the beer patches category.
It's no secret that most bikers love beer. Why else would there be so many beer related patches? Beer is the most widely consumed alcoholic beverage in the world and ranks third on the list of popular drinks (water and tea beat it out). It's also most likely the world's oldest fermented beverage. Beer is so beloved by its drinkers that it's mentioned in some of the earliest pieces of writing. The Code of Hammurabi actually includes laws relating to beer and what were basically the pubs or bars of that time. Another example of early writing is the Hymn to Ninkasi, who was the Mesopotamian goddess of beer! Next time someone accuses you of drinking too much, you can tell them you're praying to her and that your goddess demands another round.
This patch features two beer mugs and the saying 'got beer'. It's not a question because anyone in a bar probably has a beer already and another one on the way. The patch is oval shaped and measures 3 by 2.25 inches.
