Super Bowl XLVI is just a few days away, and if you still haven't decided which beers to pour on game day, no worries--we've put together a six-pack primed for Sunday's big game. Whether you'll be ordering pizza, mixing up a pot of chili or grilling burgers, these brews all fit the bill, and they're low-ABV to boot.

Stone Levitation Ale
Escondido, California 4.4 percent ABV
They say slow and steady wins the race, and come game day, low-alcohol beers like this modestly malted, citrus-hopped amber ale from California's Stone Brewing Co. (as well as these additional low-ABV brews) can keep you perfectly paced without needing a nap before halftime.

I wish I could get Sam Adams Octoberfest all year 'round.

Drink local is what i say

Pretty good list, but Sierra Nevada's Ruthless Rye (or any of their products for that matter) doesn't deserve to be on such a list. They're the Sam Adams of the west. For a rye with some real flavor to it, try Kern River's offering. http://www.thirstygeek.com/main/2012/1/17/kern-river-winter-rye.html

American craft works on display. And the Dogfish Head beer site has some amazing recipes for beer cupcakes (more American ingenuity)..

I would just get a six pack of Bell's Hopslam. Wait - I have one that I have been saving for this Sunday!

If you like bad Belgian beer, drink Budweisser ! InBev for the win.

Another Fort Collins brewery without the prestige is Odell's and i will be drinking their Five Barrel this weekend which is a fantastic pale ale.

Ruthless Rye is very good for the price. I actually prefer it to Torpedo.

If the Giants are leading 17-0 at the end of the first quarter, I might WANNA be asleep by halftime.

... Since NY is playing MA, shouldn't some of the beers included been, I don't know, from NY or MA? What, exactly, does Alaska have to do with the Superbowl?

Nothing wrong with drinking regionally as a way to enjoy the game, but I think the idea is just to put together a delicious group of beers to enjoy while watching a football game rather than adhering to regional guidelines. Something like this will always be very subjective.

Since the Patriots are in the Super Bowl this year, I planned on getting Samuel Adams Griffin's Bow. It is a rather nice barley wine and not for the faint of heart.
