Thanks again, just finished watching. I especially liked the involvement of Dogfish Head Brewery which makes some of the best beer in the country.

I also liked the 'taste test' part where they had Bud Light, Miller Light, and Coors. Not surprising that people couldn't tell them apart. Next time I'm around those 3 I'm eager to give it a shot.

I don't understand how with the distribution system that ABush isn't considered a monopoly under federal law. They control the distributors and over 70% of their distributors ship nothing but Anheuser products. That has go to be close to a monopoly.

You're welcome, brother. The Dogfish guy was very likable and I thought he did a good job of selling the price point, which I have typically struggled with. I tried picking some up today, but they didn't have it at my grocery store....so I bought some Great Lakes Brewing Co. sixers instead.

The taste test was great. People are so brand loyal in the light beer market, and I have never understood it. I have found that High Life Light is my favorite, but I wonder if I could pick it out against the big 3 lights. I'm guessing no, but I'll give it a go.

:iagree:

Thought I'd never taste a better IPA than their 60 minute, then they made the 90 Minute IPA...:) 9% ABV :00hour
I've never seen the 120 minute IPA here in Iowa; I know its a seasonal brew and made in small batches, but at 18% ABV....:mj06:

I favor the 60 minute over the 90 but that is splitting hairs. Total Wine has the 120 min here in NC but I've yet to try it.

Sam Adams is a good way to be introduced to craft/micro brews, it's what got me into them. I haven't tried the 120 minute IPA yet, enjoying a German style doppelbock that I brewed myself right now.
