Massachusetts Bar Creates Free Brady Blonde IPA to Protest QB's Suspension

Unhappy with the National Football League's Deflategate discipline, New England Patriots fan and bar owner Chuck Horne has found a way to support Tom Brady after the league suspended the Patriots quarterback.

Twitter user @matthewawyman tweeted at ESPN.com's Darren Rovell on Sunday night to reveal a drink that recently debuted at the Eagle Brook Saloon, Horne's Massachusetts bar that is just miles away from Gillette Stadium. The drink: Free Brady Blonde IPA.

That drink has to be a hit with Patriots fans.

Some may think that spending $6.75 on a drink is a little steep, but there is good reason for the high price tag. The Eagle Brook Saloon pledges that $1 from each drink sold will be donated to a charity on Brady's behalf. According to Rovell, the bar has sold more than 500 of the drinks in just six days.

Buying the Free Brady Blonde IPA will in no way make NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell rethink the four-game suspension that he handed Brady. Patriots fans, however, have turned a bad situation into something good. While protesting the suspension, they are raising money for local charities.
