Abe’s Cold Beer Robbed by Man in Fake Beard

As far as criminal disguises go, the fake beard would have to be a pretty safe bet.

It covers your face enough (depending on the fake beard style) that you can really throw off a potential witness’ description of you.

Add any sort of eyeglasses and you’re immediately unrecognizable, however, you may stick out just a bit when fleeing from the place you just robbed.

Usually, I’d think this was a bit funny, but some guy robbed Abe’s Cold Beer in Bethlehem!!!! I’m there like… twice seven times a week!

Bethlehem police said a lone gunman wearing a fake beard Monday night held up Abe’s Cold Beer, a West Bethlehem six- and 12-pack beer seller.

Police said a black man in his late 20s to early 30s, about 5 feet 10 inches tall with a heavy build and wearing a dark blue jacket, jeans, hat and phony beard, followed a clerk into the store’s freezer at 9:52 p.m., racked the slide on a silver pistol and pointed it at the clerk.

The man ordered the clerk to return to the cash register and give him the money, police said. The man ran away with an undisclosed amount of cash. No one was injured and no beer was stolen, police said.

The store is at 1301 W. Broad St.

What? The 7-11 up the street wasn’t good enough for you? They have all the free money you can shake a shotgun at.

Leave Abe’s alone! That place has like 2,342 types of beer and all anyone ever buys are 12 packs of Miller High Life.

They sell Four Lokos there like HOT CAKES.

Man, I’m thirsty.

But, seriously, Abe’s was open on LABOR DAY. He’s open all the time. You have to respect a place that you KNOW is going to be open pretty much no matter the time you need your fix of Bud Light Lime. Cause, when you need a Bud Light Lime, it’s like no other fix.
