Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me:

…. CRAP …. wrong story. 

Give me your BEER!!!!

Yup, that’s the one. Sorry bout that folks.

NEW YORK, NY (June 1st, 2007) – Innovative case company Crumpler will be exchanging beer for bags from June 9th – June 17th at it’s two Manhattan locations: 45 Spring St. and 49 8th Ave. In a twist (top) on the concept of bartering the company will accept the amber brew as tender instead of more traditional methods such as cash, credit or cheques during the sale.

A selection of the company’s messenger, laptop and photo bags will be offered in exchange for specific varieties and quantities of ale representing a saving of over 30%. One case of Coopers and four Fosters Oil Cans can be traded for a Barney Rustle Messenger bag (retail $95). A Moderate Embarrassment laptop satchel (retail $80) can be procured for two cases of Asahi and a packet of ramen noodles.
