Lewis Grizzard once wrote a book titled "Shoot Low Boys- They're Ridin' Shetland Ponies."

That is exactly what Miller Brewing is doing.

Instead of taking the high (life) road, their latest ad campaign is trying to teach you that CHEAP beer (like theirs) is good beer.

Here's a question for you....

"How can you tell if a person is drinking one of America's mass produced, low quality, watered down beer, beers?"

Answer: "Watch them for a minute and see if they are doing anything stupid."

Thanksgiving can be tax a good beer lover's mind, trying to figure out what beer goes with what?

Well, worry no more, fellow suds-sters and suds-sisters. Here is some helpful information, thanks to our friends at beertown.org.

Well maybe not, but the site is running a list of the top-10 beer cities in the world and not one of them is in Colorado.

So here's my list of best beer cities in Colorado:

Check out this story of an Airliner named after a beer.
I wonder if you get free beer on board?

Beer sales are down in Western Pennsylvania, so two beer distributors had the idea to build the world's largest Coors Light display, according to this article in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

I spoke with Southern Sun's General Manager Paul Nashak about the event. He was pleased with the how everything turned out and said that they're estimating that between 8,000 and 10,000 people attended throughout the day. That's a lot of people!

So many people have been Googeling the SOBO Summer Fest entries on the site that I had to check it out. [img_assist|nid=140|title=The SOBO Stamp|desc=It speaks for itself.|link=none|align=right|width=150|height=113]

So this isn't exactly Beer related, but it deserves a mention. Yesterday afternoon we visited the Balistreri Winery on E. 66th Ave. It's a small place and the winemaker John Balistreri and his daughter Julie man the tasting room. John makes some really interesting wines such as his Chardonnay, which the label says in an "un-Chardonnay." If you taste this wine with a blindfold on, you would swear it was a red wine. That's because the Balistreris ferment the wine "on the skin" just like a red wine. Most white wine is fermented without the skins and stems.

I got an email this morning from the daughter of a 22-year employee of Latrobe's Rolling Rock Brewery. Apparently Anheuser-Busch bought the beer label last week for $82 million. The brewery itself was not part of the deal, which means that Rolling Rock will probably be brewed at one of Anheuser-Busch's other breweries.
