The Men’s Journal '25 Best Beers In America' List

Tonight, I give you the Men’s Journal “25 Best Beers In America” list, which that magazine put together in June. Here’s what the editors of that magazine had to say about the list.
"We put this list together by gathering recommendations from the experts and carefully tasting case after case, on deadline. You, however, have all the Saturdays in the world. Think of this list as a scorecard, with points to debate and notes for inspiration. Which is to say, you’ve got some drinking to do."
