GP Readers’ Favorite Beer List and Stratton Beer Mugs Winner!
Our Community Speaks on Man's Favorite Drink.
Congratulations to Sean W. who was randomly selected as the lucky winner of some glorious beer mugs! To enter, he had to name his favorite brew. Here’s what he had to say:
“Like others it’s impossible to pick one. Dogfish Head 60 Minute will never cease to be a favorite. Andersen Valley Poleeko Gold Pale Ale whenever I can find it, and since I toured the brewery last year, San Francisco’s Anchor Steam is always a welcome treat, especially on draft.”
This was a great answer to a very hard question, and based on the responses you’re not alone in your pick, as both Dog Fish and IPA’s in general seem to be fan favorites. However since one’s favorite beer is such a personal thing, we’ve gone ahead and put together the complete list suggested by the community. Read it in all its splendor after the jump.
Your picks didn’t disappoint fellas. This list is amazingly robust (84 different beers) and should serve as a great resource for those looking to expand their brew horizons. Cheers, thanks for the tips and be on the look out for our next question contest. -The GP Crew

Sorry.
Who won the ATT LG Vu Phone you guys were giving away? That's been delayed a couple of times now!
Michael,
Thanks for asking about the Vu giveaway. First, our apologies. We've been a little busy evangelizing the goodness that is Gear Patrol over the last few weeks and haven't done the best job of announcing contest winners with the great fanfare that we've all come to know and love. As for this particular contest, we announced the winner last week, and you can check the original post for the update: http://gearpatrol.com/blog/2009/03/30/lg-vu-from-... Thanks again for being a part of the GP community, and I hope you'll stick around because we've got tons more great stuff to share with you guys and giveaway.
