I know enough about it to know it's mostly over hopped copies of someone else's over hopped IPA. Throw that many hops in day old bathwater and it tastes the same as some silly named over priced IPA. Two terms that need to go the fuck away "craft beer" and "IPA". What's the "craft in brewing up some swill with as many hops as they can and throwing a high price on the six pack. IPA is just easy to say, and remember, has snob appeal. It rolls of the tongue easier than "some over priced beer with a pretty picture on the label that I regret buying".

I've never liked Budweiser, ever.  I was on a Coors Banquet kick for a long time.

Started drinking Lone Star, then went to Coors, then Shiner Bock (which I still like), and I'm only just now acquiring a taste for India Pale Ale.  That Sam Adams is decent.  Couldn't tell much difference between it and the more expensive Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA, it's all pretty hoppy.

That Arrogant Bastard, though

Here's a very cool graph from today's Wall Street Journal that says an awful lot about America's changing taste in alcohol. Americans now buy more craft beer than Budweiser. (Not Bud Light, mind you. Just Bud.)

On the one hand, this chart is a reminder that craft brewing is still a niche—albeit a fast-growing one. According to the Brewers Association, craft labels make up about 14 percent of the U.S. beer market. Take Allagash, Lagunitas, Dogfish Head, and all your other favorite little breweries, toss them together, and they barely outsell the third most popular brand in America.

On the other hand, it's also a very specific testament to the decline of Budweiser, which these days is basically a beer without a purpose. Twenty years ago, when Americans were less health-conscious and had more homogeneous tastes, selling a mass-market, midpriced lager designed to appeal to the largest possible demographic made lots of sense. But now, it's a brand without a natural audience except for older Americans who drink it out of habit and maybe a nostalgic sense of brand loyalty. If you walk into a bar, there will almost always be a cheaper beer, a less caloric beer, and plenty of tastier beers on tap. And so it's not totally shocking that, by Anheuser-Busch Inbev's account, 44 percent of Americans between the ages of 21 and 27 have never tried a regular old Budweiser. It's not as if they're missing anything.

Anheuser Busch just bought 10-Barrel Brewing, which is a small brewery in Bend, Oregon. Maybe that's their strategy - if you can't brew good beer, buy the breweries that do.

10-Barrel makes a fine product, I just hope AB doesn't screw it up.

Not that I'm a super cool hipster who did it before anyone thought it was cool, but I was lucky to live next to a micro brew bar during my college years twenty something years ago, and developed a taste for good beer. It's what got me started brewing my own stuff

Actually it sounds like you don't know shit about craft beer.

And this article is just about Budweiser and not Bud Light right? I didn't think anyone drank regular Budweiser anymore except old retired folk. Don't most 20 somethings drink Bud Lights because they think Budweiser is "too heavy"

Most people who drink craft beer don't worry about that kind of thing, they just like to drink something that doesn't taste like ass.

I first drank Sam Adams at one of the pubs at Faneuil Hall in Boston, prob around 1984. It was vom fass as I don't think they bottled it yet. The only reason that I tried is that a buddy said it's the closest to German beer you can get here in states.

The best beers in the world are European or UK Ales. That's the end of the story. This craft beer homo shit is fine if you don't have perspective but at the end of the day they can't hold a candle to a German Monastery beer.  Kruezberg Monastery outside of Graf comes to mind....or Auguststeiner Hell...or Ruetberg Hell...or Josefe Boch...these are all beers that a man can live on. For breakfast, after dinner or any other time of day.  And none of that Pils bullshit, either.

I look at it this way as a guy who grew up in the 80s when things in this Country were still pretty good.  Guys drank Bud, Michelob, Miller, Old Style, Strohs etc.  Maybe  Lowenbrau on occasion or Mickey's.

Then in early 2000 craft beer was really starting to take shape.  Around that time our Country started to decline big time.  Young men lost their balls and started to only care about drinking Craft Beers, participating in fantasy football, gaming, watching Comedy Central (Stewart and Colbert) - and just generally becoming snarky know it alls who stand for nothing who seek nothing but a lifestyle of instant entertainment.

I'm guessing something in craft beers the last 10 years has lowered drinker's testosterone and shrunken their balls.  It's the only logical explanation.

Doubtful.  By the way you are behaving in this thread, I'd bet that they are pretty tight.





The overall point is this: why do you care about what other people drink? Does your neck beard cause to be concerned about how much better your tastes are than others?





As for the champagne of beers? Well, back in the day when I was drinking keystone light almost exclusively (aka, college), and Coors original was a "good" beer I hated Miller highlife. I thought it sucked.  I haven't tried it since. I wouldn't be opposed to another go, but not to the point where I'll go out and buy one.





The difference between you and me? I don't care if some people like it.  Doesn't effect me.





You, on the other hand, apparently get your panties in a bunch about what other people do.





Its ironic that the anti-hipster are just as snobby and arrogant as the hipsters they try to claim everyone else is.

Oh, and for all the claims of beer snobbery among craft brew drinkers, I've noticed something about most macrobrew drinkers: They have fierce brand loyalty.



"I only drink Bud, Miller is shit" or (my uncle) "Natty light is the best beer, Bud is nasty"



Much like the hipsters people claim buy "horrible" IPA's based on a label and a catchy name. Allot of macrobrew drinkers appear to pick a beer based on marking as well: cool commercials, sponsorship of sporting events, and old fashioned brand name recognition.

The overall point is this: why do you care about what other people drink? Does your neck beard cause to be concerned about how much better your tastes are than others?

As for the champagne of beers? Well, back in the day when I was drinking keystone light almost exclusively (aka, college), and Coors original was a "good" beer I hated Miller highlife. I thought it sucked.  I haven't tried it since. I wouldn't be opposed to another go, but not to the point where I'll go out and buy one.

The difference between you and me? I don't care if some people like it. Doesn't effect me.

You, on the other hand, apparently get your panties in a bunch about what other people do.

Its ironic that the anti-hipster are just as snobby and arrogant as the hipsters they try to claim everyone else is.

I haven't had a Budweiser since the late 90's or so and then it was all I could do to drink that.

I'm not a beer snob either. I grew up drinking Red, White, and Blue, Schiltz Black Label, and Rolling Rock. Now it is mainly higher end beers. My buddy turned me on to Serria Nevada in 1991 after he came back from San Franciso and my beer of choice has been the Pale Ale ever since. I do not drink beer so much any more, but this time of year gets me buying Celebration Ale by the case.

You guys have some shitty stores, then.

There are north of 2,000 different beers available at my local retailer (that's not a typo), and the majority of them are not IPAs.

You can't imagine how much I don't care about you or your opinions.
Just pointing out ironically childish behavior.
Much like the left preaching about tolerance and acceptance while at the same time spewing hate, you talk about how these "hipsters" are being snobby and uppity and closed minded by being exactly that in this thread.



If you want to see someone who is somewhere on the metrosexual spectrum, who cares about what other people think about beer and what they drink then check the mirror.

Some craft beer comes in cans as well.

All craft beers are IPAs?

At our store, maybe 24 of the over 120 beers we sell are true IPAs. I won't argue that a lot of 'craft' beer has a heavy hop usage.



And yes, we still sell a huge amount of Bud, Bud LT, Busch, etc. Being 9miles from a reservation, Bud and Bud LT run neck and neck as 1 and 2  for volume sold.

Don't hate on the IPA. Most micro breweries also make stuff other then IPA, try that stuff.

Meh, I like beer and trying different flavors. My only favorite for taste and consistency is Guinness but I'll drink just about any beer. Well, used to anyways. Don't really touch beer anymore, stick to wine and that not even that much. Cutting out alcohol is certainly easier on my pocketbook and I suppose my liver.
