April 12, 2013 I saw this list on yahoo today that shows the calorie counts of your favorite beers. Naturally, my favorite beers aren't really on the list, but they do have some popular ones that I've tried. Here's what you can expect from these beers.
April 4, 2013 If you've lived in the Northern Midwest, you've probably seen these around during those hot, humid summers. It's the refreshing beer that everyone can enjoy. Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy is a blend of lemonade and wheat beer, which tastes better than you may think.
April 2, 2013 Last summer Bud Light came out with the Lime-a-Rita. This year they have complemented the lime flavored malt beverage with a strawberry flavor called the Straw-Ber-Rita. As soon as I saw this in the store, I bought a 12 pack of 8 oz cans an brought them home.
How does a minor league baseball team plan to get all the guys to the yard this summer? Milkshakes, made with beer. You said baseball? Don't be dumb.

For centuries, everyone from physicians to brewers have used flavor wheels as a means of breaking down the many varieties of aromas and flavors of a particular substance or beverage. A new book includes a consumer-friendly version of a flavor wheel just for beer drinkers.
Do you find that your dog is frequently stressed after a hard day of guarding the home? Then you may want to help your pooch unwind with 'Dawg Grog,' which is being marketed as beer for man's best friend.
November 14, 2012 I'm a beer drinker. I'm also a whiskey/gin/scotch/rum/tequila/wine etc drinker. OK, let's just say I've tried just about everything. The point is I don't drink beer exclusively, but I drink it enough to know a great beer when I taste one. Spotted Cow from New Glarus Brewing is definitely a great beer, perhaps my new favorite.
