Where is the best beer in America?
According to Men's Journal magazine, it's in Paso Robles, Calif.
The magazine ranked Firestone Walker Pale Ale as the best beer in America, followed by Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA, which is produced in Milton, Del.
Rounding out the top five are Stoudt's Pils, of Adamstown, Pa.; Russian River Temptation Ale, of Santa Rosa, Calif.; and Avery Mephistopheles' Stout, of Boulder, Colo.
It has chosen what the editors call the top 25 craft brews that this country has to offer.
The company said its editors put their "sensitive palettes to the test" and have determined the most flavorful microbrews, also judging on the basis of it being refreshing while appealing to a variety of different tastes.
Men's Journal's third annual survey of the Best Beers in America is featured in its October issue.
You have to appreciate a city that can laugh at itself. Everyone else does.
Where's Coors Light?
Yeah, but this is one of the worst beers I've ever had.
Don't look at market share but growth rate and you will understand why Miller introduced Icehouse, Anheiser now has Budweiser Select and Coors is buying out craft breweries.
"Coors is buying out craft breweries."
Don't know where you got that bad bit of info.
BTW...it's Molson Coors. They merged awhile ago.
Sure it wasn't Descuttes Inversion IPA? It's the only IPA I've seen at Safeway. Guess it could have been Full Sail.
LMAO!!!!!!
I will send that to a friend
It was at Bonney Lake Safeway so they may have different stock. Those two don't sound right and I was just at Proctor Safeway yesterday and noted some different stuff since it's right across from the soda pop. But hey, it's my Friday so I guess I'll have to go check it out tonight! I'll report back...8>)
16 yrs old-the best beer is what you can get-in my youth it was Genny, Genny Cream Ale (Genny Screamers), Carling Black Label and Old Topper.
In my present age: My HomeBrew (It's a far better brew when you know the government's getting the screw.) Arrogant Bastard Ale (God I wish I had thought of that name), Shiner Anything, and sampling the many brews available-Better than Forrest Gump, you just never know what you'll find.
My Military time let me sample the best of Germany and England. I love the chance to make and sample the many brews that are made here.
Okie doke, please do. :o)
Yeah, my wife beat us both to it...LOL
I picked up a couple bottles of the Bastard last week. I may have to get to those this weekend
My Birthday is coming up-that is my planned treat
Happy Birthday, bro!
Thanks
too many of them
to want to celibrate but always a good reason for a good brew
Here in America, we just call in "Stella", the "Artois" is silent.
I thought it was a damn good beer.
I still like Guinness, Heineken, Moosehead, Wicked Pete's and Harps.
I remember getting to Lowry AFB, Denver, Colorado, for Tech school and finding beer machines in the barracks. (courtesy of Coors)
It was right after I got out of Basic Training, and I thought I died and went to Heaven.
Shiner Bock, TX
Abita Amber, LA
