uhhh...ok...
Anyway, you guys are great. I've known Fred for a long time, and he makes a great product. I hope the days of "craft beer" locations throughout the area come back. I brew my own beer at home, and maybe one day I will be in friendly competition with these great brewers. Keep up the good work guys.

TD's Imperial Stout IS all that an' a bag of chips.

I'll have to check this out. I'd like to come by and try out some of these beers. As far as the FIRST poster? The 'craft' of getting wasted, and/or brewing beers and liquors in a craft which has been in use for many thousands of years, so shut your f'n trap.

Oh, you must be one of those PROFESSIONAL juicers.

What the hell is with this ENDLESS fascination with
'fun-flavored' alchohol???

They CAN'T even make LEMONADE anymore without
juicing it up....(Mikes???)

And that 'new' deadpan "Dude" T.V. commercial;
Is he supposed to be your new Alchoholic Hero?

Pathetic.

While Handle This sounds like a ten pounds of fun in a five pound can, I will agree with him/her about the 'fun-flavored' alcohol. I prefer my hooch to taste like hooch and not a mouthful of Lifesavers. Bring back the days when you had to grimace after taking a swig. You'd have less of the 'amateur' drunks roaming the streets.

By the way, Handle This, where can I get an application for "Professional Juicer" and what does it pay? Maybe you could be my sidekick: "Professional Buzzkill."

I remember visiting one of those "Skyline Drive"
trailer-type bars somewhere in Pennsylvania.

The sign said, "141 Beers From Around the World".

Sure enough, once inside, there were 141 brands behind refrigerator glass that ran the WHOLE LENGTH of the bar.

And four guys at the far end drinking Bud.

('nuf said...)

"fun flavored alcohol?"
i thought it ALL was fun-flavored!

My beer tastes like horse p!s$, that's fun!

My whisky tastes like battery acid, THAT'S fun!

My wine tastes like kerosene, funner still!

It's sooo-ooo much fun being a lush!

What better place for microbreweries then Akron where Drunkken Mayor Donny Boy is king?

A toast...

Heres to the girl in the little red shoes
She likes to party, she likes the booze
She lost her cherry but thats no sin
'Cause she still has the box that it came in!

-or if you prefer-

Here is to honor...
Jump on her and stay on her!

Bottoms Up!!

Here's to the guy who got chapped lips
From eating too many potato chips
And I cracked up when he smiled at me
and almost bled to death

"In Heaven there ain't no beer,
That's why we drink it here."

Better living thru chemicals! Alcohol is a drug? Indeed! So is caffeine!

Humans have been getting wasted ever since the first hominid ate a rotton fruit and noticed it was a cool effect. Guess what? Getting intoxicated is part of being human.

What else are you going to do with grain?(1) make bread,(2) brew beer, & (3) distill whiskey.

So beer could be thought of as 'liquid bread'! Got lots of 'B' vitamins!

So keep on brewing. If you get the price a bit more competitive, I might even buy your 'craft'.

An organization that promotes beer! What a great idea!

My favorate beer is cold! or any! But it is nice to have the local breweries doing well. The Great lakes Bourbon barrel stout is an excelent beer. one of my favorates. currently i've been hooked on Bell's Two Hearted Ale a great tasting IPA. And if you ever go to Wisconsin Look up New Glarus Brewing Company in New Glarus, southwest of Madison. They make a Hop Hearty ale that will knock your socks off! Check out 69taps in Wadsworth for a nice selection of beer!

You are the pathetic one. Why don't you go stand on a street corner with some sign and shout at people. At least more people would be able to see what an idiot you are that way. You're wasting your "talents" here.

The article has nothing to do with flavored alcoholic drinks. It's all about quality beer brewed locally.

There is nothing inherently bad or evil about beer...unless it is made by Miller, Coors or Budweiser.

Only a matter of time until they name a microbrew after Akron's own Sponge Don Drunk Pants.

"It'll make you lie with a straight face and still piss... er, pass the test."

P I S S, that is.

Sheesh.
