Movie Review: BEER WARS

A few nights ago, I rented the movie BEER WARS. It's a documentary about the "Big Three" Beer Companies and the rise of the micro-brews. As uaual, it's a documentary so it's biased against the Big Three.

That said, it is a very compelling piece of film.

The success of Dogfish Head's brewer is combined with the "Never Say Die" attitude of the brewer of Moonshot, a caffeinated beer.

The movie does a great job showing how the Big Three corporations do their best to shut down all these microbrews. Even with a checks and balance system envoked by using a beer distributor middleman, the companies find ways to slow the little man.

All in all, this is a very good 90 minute film. If you like beer at all, it's worth checking out.
