BFF4 Winner!

April 15, 2011

Hello Beer Friends Nation!

Wow, what an exciting tournament it was.  64 beers entered from 60 different breweries, Stouts to Pilsners, West Coast vs East Coast.  Over 73,000 votes counted and (unfortunately) only one winner – Nebraska Brewing Co Brunette Nut Brown Ale.  Nebraska’s Brunette Nut Brown Ale beat out solid competition in Cape Cod Beer Red – which received the most total votes over the span of the tournament.  Thanks to everyone who voted, everyone who drank, and most importantly everyone who Brews.  Beer!  March Madness!  Nebraska!

BFF4 Championship Game!

April 12, 2011

Hello Beer Friends Nation!

What an exciting tournament this has been.  While we remember tournaments past, we can’t remember a tournament with so many up and downs, upsets and heart-breaks, and so many fantastic beers losing by such small amounts.  We are down to two, two from 64, one will be crowded the BFF4 Champion, the other will just be a really good beer.  Who will win?  You decide!  Polls are open until Thursday, April 14th at 11:59pm.  Vote often and show that beer you love it (little known fact – most beers are insecure and need daily pep talks…)

This championship game features 2 local favorites that have used their ferverent following to propel them to this national stage.  These 2 beers, while they may be considered tame in this craft beer culture of 5 hopped IPA’s and oak barrel aged stouts, are both exceptional at what they claim to be.  Two great breweries, two solid styles, only one can be crowned Beer Friends Final 4 Champion.

BFF4 – FINAL FOUR!

April 8, 2011

Hello Beer Friends Nation!

Wow!  This was a tournament to remember… but it’s not over yet!  We had Imperial Stouts battling in Brad’s Colorado/Michigan Bracket, Newcomer Nebraska showing veteran poise in Paul’s Bracket, a California clash of Speakeasy and Stone in Phil’s bracket and a epic duel between Captain Lawrence and Cape Cod in the Northeastern Graham bracket.  This was truly one for the ages.  Now we are down to four, four delicious beers with huge fan bases and twitter feeds to back them up.  Four beers enter and one will come out as the 2011 BFF4 champion, with their banner hung in the rafters (next the New Belgium’s Fat Tire – last years winner).  Who will be victorious?  You decide!  This round we have completely open and unlimited voting.  If you really love that beer, prove it – hit refresh (cmmd+R on a Mac or ctrl + R on a PC) and vote the day away.  If you spent your March hiding your CBS March Madness broadcast window when your boss walked by – this is much easier.  Polls are open until Monday April 11th at 11:59 EST.  Vote often!  Prove your love – and we don’t know who’s voting so no commitment issues!  Beer!

For a our take on this round check out our latest video and the vote! (more…)
