Title: Beer Wars!
Post by: el_chode on Apr 04, 2009, 07:46 PM
[size=8]Disclaimer: This is a plug and I have nothing to do with it anymore than I have anything to do with MMJ, which is basically, a borderline obsession with the craft they perfect.[/size]

I was at a local craft brewer (Cricket Hill (http://www.crickethillbrewery.com/events.htm)) and they were pushing this event that apparently has had a real hard time getting publicity and ticket sales are slow. It's called "Beer Wars (http://beerwarsmovie.com)" and it's some sort of hybrid documentary/movie/live event at movie theaters on 4/16, and it's all about craft brewers trying to take on the corporate behemoths. It's hosted by Ben Stein, but I'm not sure if this a good or a bad thing after his ID mockumentary.

Anyway, here's a bunch of local show times (http://fathomevents.com/theatres/Beer_Wars_LIVE_with_Ben_Stein.html). So if you're free, why not spend some time supporting your local craft brewer in any way possible? And by that, I mean pick up a sixer of something local, pound them in the parking lot, watch the movie, and go to your local brewpub after. Then post a drunk message here about how great this was. Or how much it sucked. Or how it would have been great if you remembered it
