Sierra Nevada Flipside Red IPA Is A Decent "September Beer" Forgery
I talk to a lot of beer geeks these days, which isn't as bad as it sounds. But, brothers and sisters, it's still not always good. A lot of these conversations quickly devolve into pissing contests over who has spent more time waiting in brewery parking lots in Vermont or who's got a bigger stash o...
Drink Sapporo With Your Sushi, Like A Reasonable Person
Even though I'm a fervent season-change denier, the lengthening of sleeves and shortening of afternoons is making it harder and harder to avoid the reality of the impending fall. But the silver lining there is that my wedding anniversary is in the fall, so now's as good a time as any to lead off a...

Bud Light Apple-Ahhh-Rita Is Bullshit; Drink Cider Instead
A couple of summers ago, Anheuser-Busch introduced the abominable Bud Light Lime-a-Rita, sweet fake-citrus bullshit intended to capitalize on the niche market of people who have spent their entire lives not knowing what an actual lime tastes like. Those sad bastards are still none the wiser, which h...

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 ...

Lagunitas Sucks Is America's Finest Quart Of Beer
One of these days I'm going to write about 40s—it would be irresponsible to forever ignore one of the most iconic corners of American beer culture—but I keep putting it off, because I can't find a worthwhile angle beyond nostalgia. Most of your better brewers opt not to package their wares in 40-oun...

Anchor California Lager: Because Ale Makes You Fat
You're getting chubby, and that's mostly because you spend all day looking at slideshows of the "27 Fried-est Foods at the Iowa Tractor Guild's Annual Corn Jousting Festival," which makes you shake your damn head at all those crazy, fat maize warriors and their deep-fried mutton cupcakes as you sm...

Tröegs Perpetual IPA: Always Good, Sometimes Better
Informed citizens tend to blame Budweiser for most of society's ills, and justifiably so. Between the doltish marketing, crummy beer, and thousands of lives lost every year in catastrophic avalanches of Clydesdale shit, it's tempting to call for the company's immediate disbandment, or at least exi...
Large, Half-Naked Dodgers Fan Is Living The Motherfucking Dream
Hi, what are you up to? Actually, shut up, it doesn't matter what you are doing because you are not this Dodgers fan, who, aside from this good doggie, is the only one on Earth doing this whole "existence" thing correctly....
Pabst Blue Ribbon: It's Not Just For Hipsters Anymore, And Never Was
I've only blocked a couple of people on Twitter, because the Internet has generally deemed me unworthy of harassment, but if I were a more prominent person or dealt with a more controversial subject, I would toss motherfuckers overboard by the dozen. I do not interpret the First Amendment as guara...
Dogfish Head Indian Brown Ale: Making Delaware Relevant Since 1999
There are two big breweries within a couple miles of my house—the headquarters of both Harpoon and the Boston Beer Company (Samuel Adams)—but I've never been on the official tour at either place. That's stupid. I like brewery tours, and I've been to a bunch of smaller, less convenient places; I've...
