Hot High Tech Companies To Buy Right Now

Beer makers, big and small, are tapping into consumer willingness to experiment beyond traditional brews.

Bored with Budweiser? Crack open a new vanilla bourbon-flavored lager from the market leader's "Project 12" limited edition 12-pack, which debuted Monday and is available through the end of the year. Other twists on the traditional Budweiser lager within the pack (four bottles each of the three flavors): a darker, slightly stronger brew and a hoppier one made with Pacific Northwest hops.

Or if you prefer holiday spices, Blue Moon Brewing, which is owned by competitor MillerCoors, has a new Gingerbread Spiced Ale in its brewmasters winter sampler pack, out Saturday. ..

Seasonal and limited-edition beers are not new, but, typically, smaller, independent craft breweries have been the ones more likely to release them. Boston Beer Co., the largest U.S. craft brewery, has its own gingerbread-flavored beer, the Merry Maker stout, in individual 22 oz. bottles, and the cinnamon, ginger and orange peel-infused Winter Lager, in six packs and a winter variety pack, on the way to stores now.. Also just out, the brewery's Utopia, a blended and barrel-aged "extreme" (read: very high alcohol) beer -- only 12,000 bottles were made and each sells for $199.
