   (Outstanding within its style.)


Comments:
Hot weather getting you down? Left Hand Brewing’s got just the thing for you with their JuJu Ginger Ale, which is a little like ginger ale soda, only a thousand times better. This dark amber ale has a nice foamy head and lovely ginger scent that perks up your senses for what’s in store. The beer sparkles in your mouth, and that sparkle lasts throughout the finish, both surprising you and making you want more. This is a great antidote to a hot summer’s day, or if it’s the dead of winter, you’ll even be transported to the sun with this ale.

Drinkin’ And Thinkin’

Beer Dorks News

R.I.P. Tallgrass... another casualty as the regional/national craft beer market continues to get squeezed. Wait... Constellation Brands cut all of the Ballast Point and Funky Buddha sales staff? They merged it with their Corona/Modelo staff?? We're SHOCKED!!! Pizza Beer founder crying about failure of company, blames everyone else. Reminder, the beer tasted like vomit. Try having better ideas or making better products so you're not a failure. It's Bud Light so doesn't really matter, but we expect this beer to be sitting around for awhile. Indiana brewery to open with controversial beer names to "get the conversation going". Translation: taking advantage of serious issues for free publicity. Hundreds of amazing beers in Wisconsin and the Cubs took back the one everyone drinks just because it exists and people have heard of it. How fitting... New Green Flash owners tab former AB exec to lead "turnaround". Gosh, wonder what his plan is... Pop quiz... Which of these entities is more washed up and irrelevant: ABInBev-owned Elysian or 80's pop-rock band Def Leppard? Need proof that the World Beer Cup is a joke? Hamm's won a medal this year. Yes, THAT Hamm's... Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, Budweiser has slandered the good name of George Washington.
