    We all have seen these large brewers introduce gimmicky stuff instead of better beer ( Large mouth can, with vent hole. Twisty bottles that active your pilsners flavor. And My favorite, A can that changes colors!! ) Who are they marketing this stuff to?
    Does packaging and bottle style get you to buy the beer, how about any gimmicks in the craft world?

    The beer talk forum is probably a better place for this...

    Agree with twigga, but I'd love some hypercolor cans!

    Silly, sophomoric names to make a beer seem cool... yet what's inside isn't all that great.

    What about this little gem in Houston. A "Black IPA" with coffee:astonished: I know people that have bought it just because its an IPA. If you call it a porter (which is what it is) those same people would not even consider purchasing it.
