Miller Lite Just Won Gold At The Great American Beer Festival. How?
The Brewers Association held their prom this past weekend, and in keeping with timeless prom tradition, I was left home alone while all the cooler boozers attended the Great American Beer Festival in Denver. (Incidentally, my invitation to the Spring Formal was also lost in the mail, as April 11 s...

Who Drinks The Most Beer And Wine In The World?
The smart folks over at CompareCamp made a fun (and super-huge!) infographic of beer and wine knowledge. Among the interesting facts: Europeans are some damn boozehounds! They're drinking circles around us, America. Of special note is the Vatican, which trounces the world in per capita wine consu...
Schlitz Is America's Best Cheap Beer
My first Drunkspin post was last summer's "36 Cheap American Beers, Ranked." It will almost certainly be the most widely read thing I ever publish. Kurt Loder and Steve Inskeep tweeted about it, and it got me booked onto one really cool AM-radio show in Minnesota and one really obnoxious beer podc...
Kosmic Mother Funk Grand Cru: A Sour Beer Worth Road-Tripping For
The Boston Beer Company confounds me. I do like their most famous and best-selling beer, Samuel Adams Boston Lager: It's a seminal brew in many a Masshole's drunken coming of age, mine included, and a large, unbalanced load of the Internet holds this fact against us. I can't swing a dead Yuengling a...
Washington Keeps Serving Fans Skunked World Cup Beer
As if anyone needed another reason to hate Dan Snyder, it turns out that fans at FedEx Field have been getting served beer left over from a 2014 World Cup promotion. The shit isn't exactly fresh....
Yasiel Puig Uses His Mouth To Open Two Beers At The Same Damn Time
At the same damn time?...
Stop Whining About Pumpkin Beer
We the people like to complain about every damn thing in the world, and for some strange reason, we've settled on pumpkin beer as one of the things to complain about the most. The stuff sells outrageously well, and in so doing serves as a gateway beer guiding people out of the macro cooler, even if ...

…and "Down in font," and "He missed the tag." The lines from this ad were high comedy to this teenager and his friends when it came out. ...
Guy Spills Beer Everywhere Trying For Foul Ball; TV Guys Buy Him New One
The guy in the blue Brewers jersey with sunglasses on his head was heading back to his seat holding beers in each hand when he lost both trying to snag a foul ball. As he approached his seat, Josh Thole sliced a foul ball right at him and he was in the perfect position to grab it, but for the occu...
The Fittish Guide To Drinking
You drink a variety of things on any given day. Water, sure. Coffee, oh yes. And in the evening, you'll probably have a few beers or shots or what-have-you. Behold, Fittish's guide to everything you're drinking, and how to do it better....
18 Underrated Beers
Last week we published a list of 18 Overrated Beers, featuring the irresponsible and unsubstantiated claim that there exist—right here on this very earth!—people unwilling to trade the middle seven years of their lives for a case of Yuengling. We did this because last week, at least, we were trol...
Sierra Nevada's Beer Camp 12-Pack, Ranked
Last week, I said that the current number of breweries in the United States—we're up to a bit more than 3,000—is unsustainable, and I was probably wrong. As long as these fledgling operations keep a modest focus on their home markets, there's no reason we can't have a German-style system that supp...
Home Run Explodes In Woman's Beer Cup
At least three people tried to catch this home run—although "tried" might be a stretch for the guy in orange—and it eluded all of them. With all the hands in front of her face, this poor woman made no attempt whatsoever to catch the ball, and probably assumed at least one of the dudes around her w...
18 Overrated Beers
I take very seriously my role as the Lone Listicler, keeping my own counsel and avoiding the corrupting influences of scuttlebutt and daylight to provide the Beer Internet with its only fair and accurate source of rankings, slander, and bullshit. But I was nervous about this compilation of overrated...
Cardinals Fan Drops Beer On Fans Below
This Cardinals fan takes us on a very satisfying 10-second journey. Dressed in his road grays and holding a newly purchased and refreshing beer, he saunters back to his lady friend at the railing, rests his hand against the rail, drops his beer instantaneously, does a quick welp gesture, and looks...
Tomato-Beer Smackdown: Bud Clamato Vs. Modelo Especial
Last week, Drew Magary issued his Definitive List of Excuses for Day Drinking, a timeless document of unrivaled beauty and precision from which he intentionally omitted brunch, because he likes to leave the odd scrap for the rest of us. So let's address brunch booze....
Target Field Now Has Self-Serve Beer Machines
Here's some good news for Twins fans who want to get drunk at baseball games but really hate having to engage with human beings when purchasing beer: Target Field has just installed a self-serve beer machine, the first to ever exist in a major-league stadium....
Beer Vendor Catches Foul Ball In Bucket, Denies Greedy Lady
The catch here is certainly something to be proud of, but this beer vendor's greatest accomplishment was staving off the grabby lady who tried to swoop in and vulture the souvenir for herself. That's not how adults are supposed to act at baseball games, greedy lady! ...
