There isn't a lack of content! It tells you who, where, and what. Add to it, but don't delete it. There should be atleast a stub for magic hat, which is a pretty major brewery in new england.

  • Amen to that. It's one of my favorites, also. – ClockworkSoul 02:23, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Among things that should be mentioned are the bottle-cap "poems," the history of the brewery, their website/safe sex website, and general reviews of the beer.

  • Magic Hat was featured in a documentary called American Beer with some additional background information about the brewery and how it got started.

Magic Hat, mmmmmm!

  • Magic Hat also refers to a way of collecting donations for communal events, esp. communcal food at festivals etc. Someone needs to set this definition up.

    • Indeed, this last point is correct. I see a mention of the "magic hat" in the page on the Rainbow Family. I'm not certain how to create a disambiguation yet, so, can a more experienced editor do this? Otherwise, that Rainbow Family referral to the Magic Hat sends the reader to this brewery rather than a "pass the hat" practice that is in place yearly at Rainbow Family Gatherings, which being attended by an estimate of anywhere up to 20,000 people every July 1-7 should surely have interested people looking for information here in the Wikipedia! --leahtwosaints (talk) 18:01, 15 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] style and content

let's be sure to remember that Wikipedia is an Encyclopedia not a resource of random facts. Articles should Not read like advertisements. Magic Hat is a great brewery I'm quite happy it has made its way to the mid west... I remember when I could only buy it in Vermont. Needless to say it deserves a good article, full of accurate and cited information; not rambling tales on Great Intestinal fortitude and mental fermentation. Would you see something like that in Britannica? Including too much info like that and the article runs the risk of being proposed for deletion. Let's keep the article factual and accurate. And PLEASE use headings and sign your posts!!! Naufana : talk 02:17, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
