    NBC Grimm just showed the main character sipping on a rogue dead guy ale. Sign of times to come? As Ms. Jordan said... 10% of the market belonging to craft is on the way.

    Don't know if you've seen the movie This is 40, but Stone Arrogant Bastard is mucho screen time.

    I've noticed this too, there was a scene in the walking dead where they were in a bar and the condiment holder on the table was a cardboard 6 pack holder of Terrapin Rye Pale Ale

    I also noticed the Rogue in Grimm quite a few times, but the show does take place in Portland so it makes sense.

    In the latest season they had a shot of some Happy Camper IPA too.

    I noticed the Terrapin on TWD too, but then got distracted by, you know, ZOMBIES. I keep trying to read the labels on the bottles on New Girl. I think they are Dueschutes, but I'm not positive. It's craft though.

    Also in The Walking Dead this past season there were cases of Sweetwater IPA and Red Brick Brewing Hoplanta during a scene where the Governor is talking with Milton and Andrea about having a party for the Woodbury residents.

    The increased market share in craft will just lead to more and more disguised BMC that will be bought up by noobs, to which they will ask me if ive had "that new _____ its pretty damn good, i mean its no blue moon or anything but"

    In the Alaska episode of National Geographic's "Drugs Inc.", one of the heroin junkies sports an Alaskan Smoked Porter T-shirt. Not sure if it's awesome I spotted that, or sad in every way.

    The show on Showtime called Shameless has shown Three Floyd's boxes in the background several times. Also the show Whitney shows craft beer many times as well.

    One of my favorite movies... I can't believe I never noticed Abita in it. I'll have to watch it again and look for it.

    Exposure is good. But will people get it? Will they know a craft beer from a BMC? Main TV can't hurt though.
