I haven’t tried any of these yet, so I suppose that’s my weekend sorted!

US craft beer: How it inspired British brewers

Once widely mocked, US beer is now popular globally with hipsters and connoisseurs alike. Why?

A) Flying dog is awesome and seeing as the brewery is 45 minutes from my house, HELL YEAH

B) Sorry for all you blokes outside the US, we get 'em domestic; aka cheaper.

When i was in Chicago 3 years ago, i really enjoyed some of the Goose Island Beers. First Discovered them at the Flattop Grill

That must be nice. My favorite beer, Shiner, Brewed like 3 hours away from me in Shiner, TX, isn’t considered domestic so it’s just as expensive as the imported stuff. So dumb…

Let me tell you something about American Craft beer. If you don’t like it, try another one. The selection is enormous! With the amount of homebrewers on the rise, many of the good ones are starting brewpubs and micro production breweries. I would recommend that anyone try Honkers Ale by Goose Island. I know that they were bought out by ABInbev, but its still the best beer on the market in my opinion. I would also recommend ANYTHING by Rogue. Man… I really want a beer and it’s only 7:54am…

“Blokes”? We’ll have you saying “geezers” next!

We brew our own beer it is so much fun experimenting with different flavors, and the end product is even funner to drink!

It’s about time we reclaimed some dignity in brewing!

rod7996 · 2013-04-12T10:58:37.000Z

Three of my favorites are Shock Top, Blue Moon and Killian’s Red

keith1436 · 2013-04-12T11:01:53.000Z

Allow me to add a couple to the list… Christian Moerlein and Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale

I must be lucky living in Wisconsin especially the city I’m in. Within a 30 mile radius there’s around 6 microbreweries and 1 major brewer leinenkugels pronounced (line - in - koogals). got to love slightly carbonated beverages

The only thing better than getting some recognition for American beers is having some beers worth recognizing.

With all the beer lovers here what are your thoughts on Dogfish?

Homebrew > Craft Microbreweries in my opinion.

Homebrew is cheaper, and usually (when you don’t miff something up…) a much better end product. We haven’t made a batch lately, but I"m looking to do an American Cream Ale and another extra hoppy IPA soon!
