The thing is, Chicago is the same way. It's packed with breweries and high end bars. Shit, a month ago Johnny Vomit played a shithole bar with 24
drafts. But the average bar that you end up at for a show or after work with the boys is going to have a shit selection...things are improving with
the explosion in American microbrewing...but for the most part you're getting Bud and Miller products with maybe one "import" i.e. somthing not Miller
or Bud.
If SA is the best option I'm going for that every time, that doesn't mean its the best beer, but its "hyped" because it's excellent beer for a
major American brewery. That being said, I don't see it as being overhyped much at all.
...because they can now finally afford a decent advertising budget?
...because a lot of people in "mainstream" beer culture are recognizing quality and beer can actually go together
Sure there's better but while jeep brah is stranded on an island with a case of miller chill, I hope someone floats me a case of cherry wheat and one
of those glasses. |
