This Awful Beer Is Great, Because Context Matters
Yesterday I fucked off work around two in the afternoon, which is to say about an hour after I finally fucked back onto work for the first time since last Thursday. I'd sincerely intended to bravely struggle through a full afternoon of hiding behind my keyboard, but then I got a text from one of m...
How To Be A Beer Enthusiast Without Being A Beer Asshole
Beer is so, so good. All of it gets you drunk, and a lot of it even tastes good in the process! What more could you ask for? Maybe just a quick little primer on how to get the most out of the experience? What's that? "No," you say? "Fuck that," in fact, you say?...
This Is No Way To Act In A Buffalo Wild Wings, Ohio State Fan
From The Big Lead comes this video of a very loud and presumably very drunk Ohio State fan basking in the glory of his team's national championship victory, all in the service of education his fellow Buffalo Wild Wings patrons....
A Belgian Beer From Quebec, Perfect For The End Of The World
This marks the first year in at least the past 10 that I have not resolved to learn even the basics of a foreign language. My monolinguism is deplorable, considering that I aim to communicate for a living and have had plenty of opportunity to learn other tongues over the years. But I've never made...
Hating Sierra Nevada Pale Ale Is For Suckers
One of the only things I dislike about writing this column is that no matter the topic of the day—be it my wife, my cat, the sports teams I root for, or even, on a slow day for me personally, beer—one of you hamless eggers is guaranteed to find a way to tell me that my position is invalid because I'...
An Ungodly Monster Of A Stout From Colorado
Last week I told all you big, dirty motherfuckers that we were getting off the imperial stouts for a few. You know, get our heads together, our resolutions set in stone, our children's names remembered, the whole deal. Ha. Check it out: I lied. People who write about beer for half a living will do t...
An Idiot Beer Company Sent Us Vaseline
I'm on SweetWater's mailing list. They send me some good shit sometimes. I haven't reviewed any of it yet, just because, eh, lotta beers out there. But they make some good stuff. Today, they sent this bullshit....
Here's A Fine Canadian Beer That Isn't One Of The Obvious Ones
Yesterday a reader suggested that we pump out a "Canadian Beers, Ranked" post, which is a good idea long overdue. Part of the reason we haven't done one yet is good old classic American sloth, and the other part is that, regarding the macro category at least, I can't imagine ranking anything No. 1. ...
This Is Drunkspin's Favorite Beer Of All Time
You know those brave freedom fighters who were going to finally quit watching football this year on account of all the crimes and all the punishments, the concussions and the corruption, the whole filthy package? I was one of them for a few courageous weeks, but then my favorite team finally got goo...
How To Treat Your Vagina Before Your Next Race
If you're like me, you often wonder how exactly one cares for one's vagina the day before a race. What are potential pitfalls to avoid? What are some of the worst-case scenarios? Well, Runner's World's all-women's site Zelle is here to answer the age-old question....
An Outstanding Pale Ale From Oregon, If You're Sick Of East Coast Bias
Yesterday morning found 99.9 percent of the world's beer-abiding citizens just humming along and doing their thing—going to work, probably, because most beer drinkers work, and lots of work happens in the morning....
The ESPN NFL Playoffs "Run The Jewels" Promo Everyone's Talking About
ESPN's first-ever NFL playoffs broadcast is a big moment for the network, and they've been promoting today's Cardinals-Panthers game with a cool trailer featuring the instrumental version of the opening track from the first Run The Jewels album. The Worldwide Leader doesn't appear to have put the vi...
Drunkspin's Best Beers of 2014
Presented below, you will find a list of beers that I like. Lists of these sort tend to be taken more seriously when they have authoritative names, so my working title for this one was The Definitive Drunkspin Compilation Of The 18 Beers In The Universe That Are Perfect; All Other Beers Are Horrib...
Drunk-As-Hell Falcons Fan Twerks To U2, Talks Some Wonderful Shit
If there's one lesson we've learned this NFL season (we learn it every season, really), it's that football stadiums are the place to be if you really want to peer into the dark, drunken heart of humanity. So I am thankful for this Falcons fan, who instead of sending us off with yet another video of ...
Good News, Fat-Ass: Here's Another Great Imperial Stout
Do you guys use Untappd? It's a combination social-media platform and beer-measuring contest wherein you and your friends brag about all the dope shit you drink. That part's pretty fun, or at least pretty harmless—it would lean more fully toward the fun part if I'd even heard of the super-rare stuff...
A Perfectly Festive Barrel-Aged Sour Ale
Christmas is a weird time for a boozer. I realize everyone's circumstances are different—profoundly different if you have kids of an age that requires them to be catered to in a Santa-type fashion—but even if you are religiously or culturally uninterested in the actual holiday, you probably have a d...
How Real Are These Rumors About Gareth Bale To Manchester United?
The January transfer window is almost here, which means the rumor mill is just starting to rev up into the senseless, self-serving, outlandish, and dangerously addicting clusterfuck we've come to expect. And while some of the rumors can already be written off fairly easily—Barcelona to sell Busque...
Here's Drunkspin's 2014 Lager Of The Year
Last week, I told you Ale Asylum is the best brewery in Wisconsin, which is pretty rich when you consider that I've spent a grand total of four days in that state, during which time I didn't talk to any locals, venture a mile from my hotel, or try many of the state's most acclaimed beers. But I stil...
Philadelphia Hosts World's Shortest Running Event
Have you ever found yourself envious of all those races runners participate in, but are unwilling to actually run? Then Philadelphia (which, it should be noted, is the 14th-fattest city in the U.S.) has just the event for you....
Here's A Strong Ale That Tastes Like Cookies And Weed
Now that I've got a gift guide out of the way and a best-of list mostly under control, it's time to shift focus to the final installment of the lazy blogger's year-end trilogy: the resolutions post. I haven't made much progress on that one yet, but I do know that "Stop caring about dumb names and ...
