"Over the last few decades, small, independent breweries in the U.S. have been quietly
growing. And though large breweries outpace smaller ones in annual production, craft beers are
using their local roots, small scale, and unique offerings to attract devout followers and loyal
customers.

up for a game they're usually seen living the good life up in a luxury suite with the owner and/or
their wife/girlfriend, but not Major League Soccer players.

Imported Beer have partnered together to create the ultimate beer drinking experience at home.
When the Minnesota Stars won the 2011 North American Soccer League championship cup last fall we're
sure they weren't thinking they'd be able to drink a beer made especially for them when their title
defense kicked off the following spring.
The Twin Cities-based Northern Brewer, a home brewing store with over 17 years experience and the
web's number one retailer of home brewing supplies, just announced a partnership with the club that
will put a Stars-specific beer in the hands of their supporters.
When soccer and beer collide... that's the best of both worlds. This space reserved for any
intersection of the suds and the sport whether business, beer and soccer events, or random
humor.Another beer and soccer angel got it wings today when Boulevard Brewing announced a partnership

competition in conjunction with March Madness called "Beer Madness" that features 32 beers from 32
breweries across the United States in four categories: "crisp", "fruit and spice", "hop", and
"roast".

host about how the competition works.
The long struggle that began in 2007 is almost complete. We've got the team, we've got the
stadium, we've got the Bimbo. We've got the kits, the scarves, the key chains. So what's
missing? The beer, that's what. Not that there's any dearth of that sweet nectar in and around
PPL Park. Of a given game day, you'll see everything from high-quality local brews like Yard's
and Dogfish Head to the ubiquitous old standbys.
Arsenal 3-0 Aston Villa
Here I am again, fashionably late. A little bit like Arteta's free-kick then, which will have been
missed by hordes of Arsenal fans who'd upped sticks and begun their homeward journey already.
Among these I count the remaining members of the merry throng I sit with, including Brother
Wimbledon, Snowboard Rob and the Shedman, who had moments earlier slipped away to the pub.
