Keegan Bradley, Graeme McDowell and Freddie Jacobson aren't just competitors at a PGA Tour venue near you. They're also friends -- and now -- partners in a new business endeavor... something called "Golf Beer."

According to a USA Today report, the threesome has joined forces , "to create some new options for the 19th hole."

From the report:

With the help of Florida-based brewer The Brew Hub, PGA tour members Graeme McDowell, Keegan Bradley and Freddie Jacobson are teeing up a line of new craft beers targeting golfers.

The three beers -- G-Mac's Celtic Style Pale Ale, Keegan Bradley's New England Style Lager and Freddie Jacobson's Scandinavian Style Blonde Ale -- will initially be available this month on draft at select Florida golf courses and on-site restaurants and country clubs. The beer will be available in cans in December and bottles during the first quarter of 2015. Distribution will expand to grocery stores, bars and other restaurants in Florida and then to other regions.

Not normally a beer guy, but I'll try G-Mac's if I see it.

Saw a picture of their beer in cans.  Cans?  Not a fan.

Also the name is not inspiring.  They could have come up with something more interesting than "Golf Beer".

Yeah "Golf Beer" is what I'd expect to see a beer called in an episode of the Simpsons or Family Guy if they were going to make fun of them for creating a beer.

"After a round"? Hey, do these guys know that they put cup holders and coolers in golf carts?

[Crim]

"Teed Up"

I like it. Or something like "Sand Trap Stout"

G-Mac's could have been..."Links Lager"

McDowell goes off message

[Crim]

Seriously, who wouldn't be a little intimidated by this in match play?

[FarawayFairways]

I think the empty glasses on the table might be responsible.

Heaven knows what Darren Clarke would come up with? An intraveinous drip rigged up to a distillery?

I know this one guy....

[Crim]

I know this one guy....

Indeed.

Juice > Beer

[FarawayFairways]

Juiced Lite sounds like he's half way there already. Needs to go into partnership with Bernhard Lager

I can't believe you went there!

I can't believe you went there!

Yeah. Sometimes I disappoint myself too!

Well, this thread took a rather disturbing turn.
