What is an ‘Honorary Beer’ you may ask? You mean besides being one of the greatest honours in both the game of basketball, and life?
It’s pretty much just The Beers list of people who we think would be worthy of joining our team, or having a beer with us, or both.
The conditions for becoming an honorary Beer are simple.
- You cannot have ever played a game with the Beers - because once you’ve played a game you ARE a Beer for life.
- Gumption is a word we like to use to describe Honorary Beers. You have to have some ‘Gumption’ about you, show some spunk in your efforts to be amazing in some way.
- Usually Honorary Beers do something loosely related to basketball or maybe beer - but rules are made to be broken and we reserve the right to ignore this one sometimes.
So what do Honorary Beers actually receive? The answer is nothing apart from the Honour of being named, admired and occasionally parodied on our prestigious website, as well as a standing invitation to come and earn their ‘Beer Wings’ by playing ball with us if they are ever down Brisvegas way.

More Machine…- Coops
