Honesty in a Bottle


Well, now it is Buffalo's chance to "answer honestly." Molson Canadian, a product of North America's oldest brewery, is bringing back their unique twin labels, but this time labels are coming to life.
On June 25, from 1-5 PM, our friends from across the river are challenging Buffalonians in the "Answer Honestly" campaign. In good-natured, Canadian spirit, Molson Canadian mounties will flock to the intersection of East Chippewa Street and Main Street to ask adult beer drinkers life's most important questions.
Would you rather date a Sport's Illustrated model or be on the cover of Sport's Illustrated? Would you rather pause life or fast forward it? Those who choose to answer will be given original "Answer Honestly" T-shirts.
Molson Canadian will be compiling the survey information and sending it out to other cities, informing them as to how they compare to their fellow Buffalo residents. Buffalo was chosen to host this event because of its well-known, open and friendly environment. Plus, the question "would you prefer box seats at a hockey game or sideline passes to a football game" should receive some particularly honest answers.
Molson Brewery founder, John Molson, takes pride in declaring Molson an honest brew, with full flavor, true drinkability and an easy finish. Molson Canadian delivers their beer at a fair price, remaining loyal to the qualities it was founded upon. Brewed since 1786, the brand is coming back in 2008 with a label that holds true to Molson's ideals, branding bottles with intriguing questions.
Are you curious to discover what defines an honest beer? Or just know if ranch or blue cheese dressing goes better with chicken wings? Come take the challenge on June 25th, test your honesty, and find out answers to your own burning questions. Visit http://www.molsoncanadian.com/ for more information.

Pain at the gas pump could lead to a population shift back to the city. That is the conclusion of several recent studies showing declining distant suburb home values and rising middle-class populations in many cities. In Buffalo, many neighborhoods are seeing high demand, but there are few signs that gas prices are a significant factor at this point.
The rising cost of gas is a concern however. In a July survey by the Siena Research Institute, 79 percent of upstate New Yorker …
Downtown workers and residents will be happy to know that a doggie daycare in the Ellicott business district has officially opened. The Puppy Playpen has transformed adjoining abandoned storefronts into a lively center for our four-legged friends. Many of the dogs are being acclimated to urban living… a lifestyle that co-owner Rosanne Higgins (pictured with her Great Dane named Sally) told me comes quite naturally for most of them. “Seeing the dogs in this downtown setting is …

Confucius said to “study the past if you would divine the future.” On October 2nd, Youth Leadership Erie County (YLEC) heeded his advice. On our first day session of the 2009 YLEC program – “Community History and Governance Day” – it was appropriate that we took a look back, in order to look ahead. By visiting some historic sites, like the Broadway Market, Michigan Street Baptist Church and Buffalo City Hall, which have helped to shape Buffalo’s past, we hope to u …

Sounds like Molson is trying to hone in on Labatt territory. Maybe they should think about moving their US headquarters here as well. Otherwise, good luck.
You said mounties... heh, heh...

It is ok to edit press releases. This paragraph belongs in a paid ad, not an article:
