Can Busch Non-Alcoholic Beer Get You Drunk?
Recently, I was chatting with a friend on Twitter about my favorite topic; yes, of course, I’m referring to that famous drink of beer. I’ve never met this friend in person, but, judging by his (many) tweets, I get the sense that he is a man of at least average intelligence, and is morally competent ...

This Is The Best Imported Beer

And we’ve said shitty things about most of t...

Whatever Happened To Michelob?
We here at Drunkspin are not a prideful lot. Despite all the luxuries and laundry money that attend our unrivaled position as the sports-site beer blog you happen to be reading at this particular moment, we still microwave our lunches one burrito at a time, same as the next blogger. Our one enduring...

Wheat Beers Can Be Awesome
For a variety of reasons both valid and otherwise, wheat beers don’t always get a ton of respect or even attention from the Craft Beer Movement’s™ leading blowhards, cheerleaders, and listiclers. The category’s association with the high-end Anheuser-Busch InBev and MillerCoors brands are likely its ...

Here's Our Favorite New Low-Alcohol Beer

Evil Twin posted the letter on their Facebook page, prompting Caution’s ...

Ice-Cold Beer Sucks (Except This One)
Happy June, hot stuffs! Let’s celebrate with a couple cold ones. But not too cold. According to this article by Chicago Tribune reporter Josh Noel, most of the beer we drink is at least 5 degrees colder than it should be. It seems most bars set their draft systems at 38 degrees, whereas beer-appreci...

A Perfect Picnic Beer For Fruit Realists
The Fruits of the Field are the very finest family of solid foodstuff, preferable even to the glorious Meats, Cheeses, and Processed Grains, and eons better than the mere Vegetables, Candies, and Gelatins. This is because fruits are generally attractive (even the meatiest among us will admit that a ...

A Nice Fruit Beer For Butts Of All Types
Kim Kardashian is on a sightseeing tour of Armenia, her ancestral homeland, a delightful fact that I know because the guy on the radio mentioned it at three o’clock this morning.

If You Need An Easter Beer, Well, Here's Your Easter Beer
I had a hectic morning, because folding laundry counts as hectic if you have a certain kind of lifestyle, and therefore I’m a bit behind on my daily media-eating. Can someone help catch me up? Specifically I’m wondering if the part of the internet in charge of dispensing cultural edicts has decided ...

This New Sierra Nevada Beer Is Offensive and Delightful
Yesterday, the Brewers Association, the Craft Beer Movement's™ leading definer of words and bestower of medals, published their list of the "Top 50 Breweries of 2014," by which they mean "50 Biggest Breweries That Happen to Meet Today's Definition of 'Craft,' Which We Change More Frequently Than Our...

What Would You Pick If You Had To Drink The Same Three Beers Forever?
Yesterday afternoon some kindly internet stranger asked me what local beers I recommend he stock up on during his next trip to my home state.

16 American Stouts, Ranked
Last Friday afternoon, I had the nerve to step away from my desk for as long as it takes to microwave a Hot Pocket and contemplate my sins, and Deadspin took advantage of those three unchaperoned minutes to damn near burn the place to the ground by running a piece with the title "Stouts Are The Be...
