I've been lurking here a lot since 2007 but am always hesitant to post because I rarely watch a game that doesn't have the Red Wings in it, so I really can't make objective comparisons.

That's great you drink some rare beer I've never heard of, good for you.
You must think I'm trying to show you up. But I'm not, so you can cut the snark. I'm just a beer advocate is all. You've got a lot of great craft breweries out your way. Check out Ommegang, Brooklyn Brewery, Southern Tier. Those are off the top of my head, but there are dozens of great craft breweries in NY, and on the east coast.
