The Beer Shitlist & Save Rock Art Brewery!

So let's get this started off right!

OK, I've been meaning to do this since April--when I started the list. This list mostly came from the big two's own websites. That's right, TWO breweries own all this "beers" or labels. There are probably more now since the two are getting more and more competition from smaller craft brewers, so they are coming up with fake breweries to fool you--I've even been fooled a couple times since becoming the beer fanatic I am now--but I've been able to recognized short-coming in the taste. If you drink Budweiser, Coors, Miller, ect., you most likely will not notice since even this masked crap is a few steps up.

Also, I just read today (13Oct09) that a SMALL brewery in Vermont, Rock Art Brewery http://www.rockartbrewery.com/, is being sued by the makers of "Monster" energy drinks, Hansen Beverage Company (part of the Anheuser-Busch happy family) for trademark infringement. Seriously, the beer in question is named "Vermonster"--it's ONE letter away from being "Vermonter"!!! I know Monster people cater generally to people of minimal intelligence, but it's a completely different label, product and very state specific.  I have a feeling this is more about beer competition. Why out-brew the competition with a quality product when you can destroy them in court.  Either way, WE CAN'T LET THESE GREEDY, CAPITALISTIC ASSHOLES TAKE COMMON WORDS AWAY FROM US!!!!!!!! TAKE A STAND!!!!!! Or let millionaires and billionaires control your life so they can make more money off of you and destroy the little guys (US!) so that can make more...
