Washington Post’s 2nd Annual “Beer Madness”
I love WashingtonPost.com. Outside of what I pay the IRS and my general disdain for politics, I have no connection to our nation’s capital in any way, shape or form. Yet, I still find myself checking out WashingtonPost.com on a regular basis because it’s not the stodgy newspaper site you’d expect. Case in point: Beer Madness!
It almost sounds like it should be a grindhouse flick of some sort, but it’s their 2nd annual “showdown of suds” pitting 32 beers in head-to-head matchups. What I love about this feature, aside from the slick animation and fun interface, is that it includes brews from across the country ranging from nationals (Miller Chill, Schlitz and Michelob) to some great regional offerings (Penn Pilsner, Wild Goose IPA and Abita Turbodog) to everything inbetween. Last year’s champ, Brooklyn Lager, is back to defend its title as is runner-up Saranac Pale Ale.
Let the games begin!
