Any tried it? I'm guessing Black Crown was doing well enough for Bud, that miller needed a copycat. It tastes alright.. and the abv is steep.

Actually never heard of it. I'm a miller guy so I may need to check it out.

Seems gimmicky, a friend of mine was talking it up though. I may give it a whirl.

The emergence of craft beers has been killing the Miller/Coors and Budweiser.

I would rather drink a good craft IPA than any of their beers...

It was decent enough.. Had a definite malty flavor. Probably won't get it again. I've been hooked on sierra Nevada's pale here lately.

Sierra Nevada Pale is a great beer

Had their rye ipa too, wasn't expecting to like it, but it was very good. Definitely made an afternoon of tooling around the house better.

This. Their Torpedo is amazing as well.

Sierra Nevada is solid all around. Never had a bad beer by them, maybe a style I usually don't prefer. But that's purely preference, never bad.

Is that so? I enjoy most of their stuff, I also hear Sweetwater is coming to central MS in a few weeks as well.

I'm with you on Fat Tire but it is brewed by New Belgium Brewery which makes some good beers. I'm excited about them and Sweetwater. The new beer law is the best legislation Mississippi has passed in years.

Great beer all aroung, but their winter beer "Happy Endings" is my favorite

I'm sure that some people will like it. However, I also know that Better Brands Distributing is giving away free feather dusters if you purchase a display of Unfortunate for your business.

I have actually really like miller fortune. I usually do not like the fake craft beers by the big brewers but this one is pretty good imo

I don't like fat tire. never understood the infatuation with it. Sweetwater is solid. they've got some good brews and some others that are solid. Never had a bad one, but never had one that takes it to the next level either.

Weyerbacher Double Simcoe IPA
Dogfishhead 60 or 90 minute (IPA)
Jai Alai IPA

That's the holy trinity of IPA's.

Dogfish head 90 is far and away my favorite. If only we could get it here...

I've never had the Weyerbacher but I agree on the others.
The following are also some fine IPA's IMO.

Victory Hop Devil
Bell's Two Hearted
Stone Ruination (Double IPA)

I've had 90 Minute once and it was the best thing I'd ever had. I'm stoked that Dogfish Head is back in TN, it's just an hour bootleg for me.

Hop Devil and Ruination are really good too. I haven't had the others mentioned.

I love Bell's Two Hearted. One of my favorite drafts, but I think it's just a pale ale. Not a full IPA.

Anything Stone makes is heavenly.
