Since my dander is up, I should also ask, Big is Bad, to go through the archives and see the number of A-B and InBev product we've reviewed for this column. Goose Island is affiliated with the A-B network, and we still proudly drink their product. Apologies if my previous comment came across as condescending, but your argument doesn't hold water.

Big is Bad: Since I opened up this particular can of worms - and since you felt so inclined to jump to conclusions (hence your screen name) - here's why I don't drink Coors product. Feel free to wash that down with a Blue Moon.

Blue Moon is alright, stop the hatred. Remember Chicagoists motto: If it's big, it must be bad, regardless of its quality. The second HopDevil or whatever gets bought out by AB or InBev or MolsonCoors, it will cease being good in their eyes, regardless of whether it tastes the same.

HopDevil's a good beer - comes within sight of being a substitute for Bell's Two Hearted Ale (although there's really nothing as good as THA).

Eric Monson, I have your next issue of beer porn, er, Beer Advocate. It was delivered by mistake inside my issue. I am forwarding on to you.

KK: Blue Moon's a Coors product, and I have reasons (other than the fact it's a Coors product) that I don't drink or buy Coors product.

Are you serious? Have you not tried the Blue Moon Honey Moon beer yet?? It should be the beer of the week every week, all summer...

Cannot argue with the Hop Devil... YUM!!!! Hoppy Goodness! Fresher the better, obviously, and on-tap it is right up there with the Alpha King and Stone IPA!!!

HopDevil is a readers choice I can give my full-throated endorsement.
