As a self-described beer snob I would love it. I refuse to drink that rice "beer". However, I'm not sure I see it happening, even with the rise in popularity of craft beers. The masses still drink Bud...

I'm always hopeful that if they (the masses) had real beer, they would convert. And besides, they could charge more for craft beer- isn't that attractive to Disney?

They're trying to sneak Magic Hat in as a craft beer- BUT IT'S BUDWEISER and it tastes like, well, BUDWEISER! Sam Adams has become too mainstream even though I give them kudos for starting the "craft" revolution. But I'm thinking more along the lines of Cigar City, Clown Shoes, Dogfish Head, 3 Floyds, etc :) And yes WoB would be AMAZING in Disney Springs, not as amazing as bringing back the Adventures Club, but it will do :)

I think my favorite "craft" beer at the moment is probably Sea Dog, specifically apricot. The House of Beer in Hunter's Creek briefly had a very dark and heavy creme brulee tasting beer that I've yet to find again. :( But all of these would be awesome options, just to even start with.

That was Creme Brulee by Southern Tier- they're one of my very favorites! Only comes in a bomber, but they have it at Total Wine :)

I am so with you on this!! I always joke with my strictly Bud Light drinking DH that you could just put a splash of beer into a seltzer water and save a little money.
You're right though, it's time for better beers outside of Epcot. I do enjoy the Safari Amber Ale in AK though, but not much more than that.

I can maybe see it happening somewhere in DTD, but not in the parks. I say be lucky we get the "Craft Brew" cart during F&W.

Isn't the whole idea of the "craft brew" that they are created in small batches? Can you imagine how much beer would be needed to make a craft brew a regular beer at epcot, I would say substantially more than a "small batch" So then that craft brew becomes something like Sam Adams...making it not a craft brew anymore. Catch 22 my friends. You can't have something non-mainstream in a VERY mainstream place and expect it to stay non-mainstream.

I think they tried to test the waters with the "craft beer" at Big River...but that place is terrible and it doesn't scream popular to WDW so i doubt they would look to expand the field...although we can hope, a BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse would be good.
