Poll: BeerBorg Commercial Favorite - Round of 32+, Bracket 3

Post by Crazy Climber »

**Bracket 3 has more than 8 entries -- the final head-to-head matchup is a three-way-dance - pick one of the three. **
Vote for your personal favorite in each head-to-head matchup.
This poll will be open for 7 days.
You can abstain from any matchup where you don't feel your vote is appropriate (unfamiliar with one or both beers, don't have a preference, etc.).
I've taken all of the nominated beers and used http://www.random.org to randomize the list, to determine the brackets.

The winner of each matchup will advance to the round of 16. The winner of the final round will be crowned as the BeerBorg.com Favorite Commercial Beer of All-Time. Or, maybe not. More like, it will be the winner of this decidedly un-scientific poll, and nothing more.

In addition to your vote, feel free to reply to this thread with your thoughts on why you voted the way you did, or any other comments about the beers involved.

Remember, it ain't rocket science - it's beer. Let the July Madness begin!

Tough bracket but I went with Levitation. As much as I've loved some of the Enjoy By releases, Levitation is pure liquid aloha (to steal a tagline from Kona Brewing).

Less than 24 hours left to vote!

Pick one each from match-ups A, B, C, D. Winners move on to the Round of 16.

A) Bell's - Black Note Stout VS. Stone - Enjoy By (any version)
Enjoy By appears to be cruising to an easy victory.

B) New Belgium - Rampant Double IPA VS. Stone - Levitation Ale
Another Stone brew looking good for a spot in the final 16.

C) Green Flash - West Coast IPA VS. Sierra Nevada - Hoptimum Double IPA
This one is very much in doubt as the deadline looms.

D) This is a three-way match-up:
Firestone Walker - Double Jack Double IPA VS. Ballast Point - Sculpin IPA VS. Samuel Adams - Latitude 48 IPA
Latitude has the lead but either competitor can make a run, with enough late votes.

Even though Enjoy By is a wonderful beer, I hope Levitation takes this. I have yet to find an Amber that equals this beer.
