*Insert your own beer goggles joke here*
Let me start out by saying that I don’t know anything about the Horny Goat Brewing Company except that it is a brewery in Wisconsin and a really creative marketer works there. I had never heard of it before stumbling across this blog entry about the free condoms.
Naturally, […]

No doubt by now you’ve seen the ads. They are oddly compelling with the Most Interesting Man in the World (MIMW) staring at the camera with an expression that is somewhere between intensity and boredom. After we are told some amusingly cryptic things about how interesting he is - he once had an […]

A few weeks ago I mentioned a dust up over a beer with higher than usual alcohol and some annoying UK based groups who decided to complain about it.

There seems to be a growing trend in looking for health benefits in booze. I first really noticed it probably around fifteen years ago when studies were showing that drinking wine might be good for the heart and in preventing cancer. Suddenly people were dedicated to their nightly glass of Cab Sauv with […]

For days, beer lovers and political junkies with too much time on their hands have wondered which beers would be chosen for President Obama’s so-called beer diplomacy meeting.

This kind of thing really gets me.
Scottish brewer BrewDog recently came out with a high alcohol beer called Tokyo. The ale is made with jasmine and cranberries. Champagne yeast helps push the alcohol percentage to 18.2 which makes it the highest alcohol beer available in Britain today.
