I'm not a fan of beer so no love lost from me, but I'd expect more of it in the future since the beer industry as a whole is going a different direction.


the owner is known to fund a lot of start up and smaller breweries, and actually buy them up as well,


his market share may be off (not in the business any longer to get numbers) but he surely is not hurting, or likely worried

There's really nothing Belgian about "Belgian IPA", it's a trendy bastardized style that's pretty much unknown there. Just an IPA that's been brewed using a different yeast strain.


It does sound like a bastard style. Belgians are one of my favorite styles, but I don't want an IPA hopped Belgian.



Flying Dog's Raging Bitch and Ommegang's BPA are actually really good IPA's brewed with Belgian Ale Yeast

That and a taste for forgettable beer.

People rave about this stuff, but it turned out to just a slightly better version of any American factory beer to my taste. What a disappointment.


I think the only people who rave about it are those who can’t get it often for some reason.

I agree though, nothing super great about it. But it’s a nice option for a cheap lager on wing night.

Honestly, who cares?

Sam Adams sells beer, and is doing a charity with Womens Day. So what.

Chic-Fil-A apparently hates gays or whatever.

Benchmade doesn't support the second amendment. Yee-frickin-haw.

Can we all just not buy the things we don't want to buy without making a big deal out of it?

Dick's are dicks, Levi-Straus are also dicks, and so on and on and on. If you pay attention to every company and product you buy, you might find you can't buy any products, if you continually connect them with politics.

I'd say that companies making donations to anti-2A causes is something to note, but seriously it doesn't matter at all that Sam Adams named a beer after a Supreme Court Justice. Let's all be selective about the things we bother paying attention to, or even being remotely perturbed about. Much less, upset.



Exactly my point. I think it is silly to get in a twist over this. It makes us look just as snow-flakey as the left.



I couldn't agree more with Arc and JHE. It is silly to get bent out of shape over certain things that don't really matter.

Now, lets go have a Duvel or Delirium Tremens or Nocturnum. Cool

Duvel and Delirium Tremens are my favorite beers. Now if only they didn't cost nearly five freakin' dollars a bottle here!

Samuel Adams Brewing is way past its prime. I wouldn't rate a single one of their brews as Top 10 in its class.

Let them pander to the hipsters and soy-bois.

I've never liked it that much. Now I will not buy another bottle.


... stirred anti-clockwise.

OK, I hadn't thought of that. You got something lying around that tastes so evil you could not get rid of any other way, "hey wait, we stick a different label on it and these idiots will buy it."
