Lake Arrowhead Brewing Company is thumbing its nose at the recent Anheuser-Busch controversy.
The mountain brewery has packaged its Pride Beer this year in cans resembling Bud Light cans.
The beer, described as a Rainbow Sherbet Sour, has flavors of raspberry, orange and lime with just a hint of vanilla, and clocks in at 7% alcohol by volume.
The cans are emblazoned with the phrase: “This beer is brewed for everyone.”
The vast majority of comments on the brewery’s Instagram post announcing the beer were positive, though there were a handful of commenters who were clearly upset by the beer.
However, the brewery has brewed a pride beer — sharing the profits with an LGBTQ+ nonprofit — every June.
This year, the brewery is going local, sharing a portion of proceeds with Pride Lake Arrowhead.
The brewery’s Pride Beer is available on tap and in 16-ounce four-packs to go while supplies last.
Lake Arrowhead Brewing Company, 329 Villa Way, is open daily.

It’s also home to the “World’s Best Flavored French Fries,” according to its website.

New in Riverside
During a recent sushi lunch with a friend, I spotted a new crêperie in Riverside.
P.S. I Crêpe You is now open at 6095 Magnolia Ave.
The shop offers a variety of sweet crêpes, along with coffee drinks, teas, hot chocolate and shakes.
Hours are 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 9 a.m.-8 p.m. Friday through Sunday.
Now open in San Bernardino
The restaurant that replaced the longtime Pablo’s Taco Bender, which closed just over a month ago, in San Bernardino has opened.
Signage was up briefly indicating the restaurant was going to be E & A Tacos, however, the sign was changed recently to Lamberto’s Mexican Food.
The sign’s logo reads “Lamberto’s E & A.”
A Lamberto’s was previously located at 250 E. Highland Ave., San Bernardino, before it was destroyed in a fire. Oldtimers will remember the location as the former J’s Restaurant.
Lamberto’s, 1232 W. Base Line, is open 7 a.m.-9 p.m. daily.
