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 ...

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...

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...

Tomato-Beer Smackdown: Bud Clamato Vs. Modelo Especial

Citrus-Beer Smackdown: Bud Lite Lime Vs. Coors Light Summer Brew
These are boom times for the better-than-Bud beer-drinker. Last year, sales of craft beer—which I will never try to define, but which all warring factions of whiners and definers seem to agree means, at a bare minimum, "beer made in a less industrial fashion by smaller, independent, more quality-con...

Budweiser Black Crown Vs. Miller Fortune: A Prestige-Beer Showdown

Spring Beers, Ranked
Good news: No matter how you do your seasonal accounting, it's definitely spring now. You're already kinda bored with baseball, you've got mud in previously undiscovered orifices, and your favorite fair-weather hot dog stand will come and go before Dick Vitale screams at you again.

Russian Beers, Ranked
When we think of Russian drinking customs, we like to envision steely-eyed, furry-hatted folk guzzling vodka with silent partners, grim determination, and maybe a pickle. That image has a certain nihilistic charm. It's less romantic to acknowledge that too many of these sad bastards wind up taking ...

This Beer-Funneling Grandma Is The Best
A 75-year-old grandma was funneling beers at a Penn State-Purdue tailgate Saturday. This is absolutely tremendous. 75-year-old. Grandma. Funneling beers. Look at her! ...

Jonny Gomes Punts Beers, Hits Old Guy In The Dome
The Red Sox clinched the A.L. East last night against the Blue Jays and engaged in the usual champagne-and-beer-spraying celebration. Fun times. Jonny Gomes added to the fun by kicking beer cans all over the place and apparently hit an old dude in the stands. Looks like he got him pretty good, too....

Dutch Striker Misses Wide-Open Goal From Point-Blank Range
There's got to be a point where one gets so close to the goal that it becomes physically impossible to miss. Nicoletta den Ridder was not that close. ...

Yankee Stadium Has Renamed Its Craft Beer Stand That Doesn't Have Any Craft Beer
We groused, circa opening day, about the Yankees' "Craft Beer Destination" that has no craft beers—everything there is MillerCoors—and only two actual beers. Guess what? Deadspin gets results....

In Australia, It's Cricket Vs. The Beer Snake
There's a war going on. On one side, Cricket Australia, the sport's national governing body. On the other side, the elusive beer snake, created by fans stacking thousands of cups through the grandstand. One is the wildly popular national sport of Australia. The other is cricket. And when the two c...

"Coeds Appreciated": Jerry Sandusky's Other Lawyer Bought Drinks For Penn State Students Last Night
When we approached Karl Rominger to do a live chat with our readers a few months back, we did so because Rominger—the defense attorney repping Jerry Sandusky who isn't Lawyerin' Joe—struck us as the kind of guy who might be fun to have a beer with. Sure enough, Rominger didn't disappoint. And last n...
