Any of those five please, you can only vote one, just choose one at random. They are selecting the top five and those are my (and I guess Tony's too) top five. Thanks all!

edit> actually it looks like the kiwi is dropping down in the polls, vote kiwi!

Three out of five ain't bad

Hungarian Oak Peach IPA....................

It's not that different (ESPECIALLY in a peach IPA) from American/French/etc oak which they've released on several occasions.

Smokabaga............yay! More chipotle beer

I really wanted the vanilla though!

That doesn't sound very good.

They're only going to released on draft at Hunahpu (for now anyway), wish they would make some of these into production batches, we'll see.

To be fair it says "smoked chili peppers" so that might not be chipotles, but every smoked chili beer I've had used chipotles, and none were better than drinkable (and most weren't even that good).

But hey, someone must like them, and different strokes for different folks...makes the world go 'round'.

Has anyone tried the new Bud Light Platinum? While I try to stay away from light beers and stick with craft brews, its so convenient to drink a light American beer every now and then.

I just tried the Platinums last night. I must say, at 6% alcohol, they are pretty good and well worth the price!

I wouldn't drink an Anheuser Busch product on a bet, but hey, that's me.

I have heard it's just the same old American light lager garbage. But like they say, taste is subjective. If I want a light brew, I go for a Pils, Hefe, or Saison. They're not really calorie savers, but light body and crisp. Calorie saver for me is a Sam Adams Light.

I thought A/B was just doing a few of their mass produced beers like 312, which I do not drink. Am I mistaken?

I really don't know if they are brewing any of Goose Islands beers.. But AB did buy majority ownership, which makes GI a subsidiary to AB. Technically GI is now apart of AB's product portfolio. However, I would not buy any beers brewed directly by the parent company, AB

I know what you were saying, Tom. I'm just in a technical mood today
