    I once tried a beer called Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. It changed the game way more than Redhook Game Changer.

    About 15 years ago I purchased the ESB & some other products , came back to the states in 04 found most all their products shadows of their former selves. Not sure how much that had to the whole deal with the "devil" (AB) they did, but I'm guessing plenty...

    It's probably just simply the AB sales team telling them " hey, if you want to sell boatloads of beer, this is what you gotta do..."

    Sadly for the sake of the beers, it worked- Longhammer is currently one of the top 10 IPAs sold.

    I do agree, though- the beers definitely were better before.

    It just depresses me to think how this brewer has trended in the last decade or so, used to love winterhook & they went ruined that one as well...

    This is usually the only "craft beer" I see at music festivals on the east coast, that and the ESB and Personally I think they are both terrible.. I aways get them bought for me to and end up giving them to another friend.. Red hook can eat a bag of dicks
