Review of Beer Wars (2009) by Jim A — 17 Aug 2009

Really interesting documentary. at first the director lady is obnoxious. she definitely should have edited out all the stuff about herself. in the end, her experience with mike's hard lemonade has zero bearing on the film; completely an exercise in egotism.

however, this gets focused really quickly and gives you a great insight into the beer industry. there is definitely a bias here, but it's a bias that's hard to argue with unless you're being bribed by anheuser-busch.

also some great footage of allston and marty's liquors (whose building still stands empty, and whose sandwiches are dearly missed).
