Default I discovered a SERIOUSLY good beer

Winters Bourbon Cask Ale is the name. It is amazing, by far the best beer I have ever had! Definately try it! Its not a microbrew either, they sell it nationally I beleive.

Yea, Winter's is the brewer. Anheuser-Busch actually owns the brewer, but don't let that discourage you, it is amazing.

Winter's Borboun Cask Ale.

I doubt you'll like it too much, its very sweet, vanilla-y.

The packaged version seems to taste worse than the white label (not for retail sale) testers that i have. I got a few of them from work, I have a couple put back if you want one.

Its on tap at a few DFW locations I believe.

The domestic pisswater makers are actually starting to get a clue and make some pretty decent beers. This one apparently, Bare Knuckle(Guiness clone), Blue Moon, etc.

coors makes Blue Moon, right? Coors is probably my favorite domestic brewary though, tastes pretty decent compared to most of the horrible other ones. Budweiser is by far the worst thoguh, i can't stand any type of Budweiser beer. But this one is good, it seems like its just some beer with the budweiser branding smacked on. Just tastes like any other small brew beer. I will be buying a pack for next weekend.

Yes off-hand I believe it is Coors. I couldn't believe it when I read it

Yes, Blue Moon is a Molson-Coors brand. I liked it, but wasn't overly impressed, though I had had quite a few in my by that point.

As far as the "typical" Budweiser brand s***, that annoys me. Anheuser-Busch puts out quite a few decent 'micros' but they get s*** labeled because they are A-B owned. Michelob has a few decent brews in their yearly holiday sample pack, and A-B is picking up and doing more and more with various brews.

I'm glad you like the Winter's Cask Ale. I was "okay" with it, but I wasn't going out and purchasing a 6 Pack or anything like that.

Hmmm...sounds interesting. I'll have to keep an eye open for it when I'm at the bar next.
