Got a mixed 12 of Magic Hat because the price was right. I'm pretty so so on their stuff after a few chances.

All of the Ale Asylum beers I've had are very good, and that's my favorite.

with mixed twelves -no matter which brewery -at least 3 are lousy, and end up cluttering my fridge for a year.

The Magic Hat Number 9 is awesome on tap, somewhat less so from the bottle.

Have we talked about 21st Amendment or Clown Shoes Brewery yet?

I've really enjoyed almost every offering from both. The Clown Shoes Black American IPA on cask is phenomenal.

Anymore, I nearly always choose a beer on tap over bottled unless they have no real choices.

You?

Perennial and Civil Life opened this week. The beer scene in St Louis just keeps getting better and better.

8 beers Americans no longer drink.

Well not really stopped, but a fairly dramatic drop in consumption.

I still like Michelob and Budweiser sort of, but no longer love.

I thought the big brewers would do a better job with bringing other products to market.Or at least buying out the schafly type larger brewers. So many of the best craft brewers (including New Glarus' brewmaster) honed their craft at AB. A friend of mine says they experiment making good stuff down at AB that never hits their marketing propaganda machine. they just can't bring it or commit to it. The ones they do are the likes of bud light lime and bud55..

Personally I hope ABinbev doesn't figure this new market out and just sticks to their normal stuff. the freewheeling crafters are contributing to the common good.
