    Miller Fortune?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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)
