Beer For Breakfast, Lunch, And Dinner: A Crohn's Disease Tasting Menu
I should probably start by announcing that I'm not a doctor. So if you're reading this, and you (like me) have Crohn's disease, and you're looking for some sort of guide for how to deal with your illness or how to incorporate more adventure into your diet, please keep in mind that in this case, yo...
Blue Moon's Winter Beer Is A Fine Gateway Drug, As Usual
For all the inroads American craft beer has made in the past decade, the 10 best-selling domestic brewskis are all still owned by either Anheuser-Busch InBev or SABMiller. The two-headed, yellow-fizz-pissing monster achieves this market dominance through the traditional means of aggressive advertisi...
Dan Patrick's Session Beer For Bros Will Fill Up Your Passion Bucket
Last year Red Hook teamed up with television and radio personality Dan Patrick to produce Audible Ale, which they proudly trumpet as "the ultimate craft beer for watching sports." What confers this ultamism? The marketing material suggests it's derived primarily from Audible's "crushable" status, ...

UTEP Coach On Beating MTSU: "Look At Me. I Don't Drink Light Beer."
UTEP won a hard-fought 24-21 victory over MTSU tonight, and ASN announcers asked Miners coach Sean Kugler how he'd celebrate. "I might have a few beers."...
This Coffee Milk Stout Is The Pride Of New England
A couple of months ago, Business Wire reported that Pabst was on the verge of being sold to a Russian beverage company. My initial reaction was, "There's gotta be a good Putin-hipster-gulag joke in here somewhere," followed by apathy when I realized that you can't make a good joke about a society ...
Lance Armstrong Dropped Out Of A Beer Mile
With the Beer Mile World Championships rapidly approaching on December 3, interest in the event is peaking. Lance Armstrong, who probably doesn't have a lot to do these days, decided to give it a try. Surprisingly, one of the world's greatest athletes can't drink and run for shit....
Sour Beer: The San Francisco Treat
Is beer food? That's a deceptively complex question. At first, you're like, "Of course beer is food, because it's made of barley and wheat and other edible plants," but then you realize that you don't chew beer, and food is something strongly associated with chewing. But wait, soup! Soup is definite...
Is CenturyLink Field Selling Watered-Down Beer?
A Seattle news station purchased multiple beers at Seahawks and Sounders games, had them tested, and discovered that in every case, the samples' ABV were below those beers' advertised numbers—sometimes illegally so....
Delirium Tremens: A Refreshingly Morbid Belgian Ale
Last week, Esquire published a gentle little rant decrying the rise of lower-alcohol session beer. The author's mistaken thesis is that the praise pendulum has swung too far away from the sort of mighty, boozy beers he prefers and too close to an imaginary wave of thin, watery Bud Light-alikes who...
Most Fruit Beers Suck; This One Doesn't
For such a handsome and hopeful young man, it took me a remarkably short period of time to get a bit jaded about the Craft Beer Movement™. It's not that I don't appreciate good beer—hell, you could go so far as to say I even respect it—and I also like the fact that the overwhelming majority of Ame...
27 Pumpkin Beers, Ranked
There are two kinds of people: those who embrace Pumpkin-Spice-Everything Season for the miracle that it is, and the godless, gourdless heathens who reject it and live a bland, spiceless life. I fall into the former category, which means it's time to combine two of my favorite activities: drinking p...
Katie Nolan Tries To Chug Six Beers Better Than Madison Bumgarner
Katie Nolan has a problem with people claiming that pitcher Madison Bumgarner's chugging four, five, or six beers after the Giants win postseason games. (We've gone with different wordings, because he's really just pouring them on his face, though that's still cool.) So, Nolan attempted to show ho...
Madison Bumgarner Takes Six Beers To The Face
Giants ace Madison Bumgarner "chugged" four beers at once when his team won the wild card play-in game. When he "chugged" five beers after winning the NLDS, everyone wondered if he'd be able to work his way up to six beers in the event of an NLCS win. So, did he go for the full sixer last night? Y...
Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye Is A Rye Beer Worth Fighting For (Or About)
The easiest way to upset a self-identified Beer Geek is to point out the nipple-blood that's soaked through his couple-of-Xs-too-small "Water & Barley & Hops & Yeast" t-shirt. After that, you might as well compound the problem by pointing out that lots of great beers contain all sorts of extra ingre...

This Is The Best Imported Session Beer
Welcome once again to Drunkspin's Sub-Five-Percent Friday, wherein we recommend a low-potency beer to keep you in the mood but out of trouble. Remember, it's a long weekend, at least as far as the government is concerned, which means court's not open Monday—if you get arrested for something stupid t...
Madison Bumgarner Is Now Up To Five Beers At A Time
OK, this is threatening to get out of hand. After winning the play-in game last week, Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner "drank" four beers at once. (More realistically, he poured four beers onto his face.) After the Giants won their division series last night, Bumgarner has graduated to five....
