This can only mean one thing........more pseudo craft offerings in disguise from BudMillerCoors! I actually saw Bud American Ale at the super market the other night, thought they stopped making that.

Pbr Irish ale?!?!? Why aren't we all drinking this all the time??? But really is part of our love for micro brew also a starvation for community and love for cottage industry and entrepreneurialship? I know I drink a medium quality local brew from the pub across the street before a slightly above medium Quality brew from abroad
