What's the general consensus on this...overhyped crap? We'll probably not see it in PA, but I'm just curious as to the origin of the sarcasm.
Ugh, I have yet to drink a Flying Dog beer that I would buy a six pack of.I didn't really like the Flying Dog beers that a lot of people seem to love either.
I had a couple of these yesterday. Not a bad beer, but nothing I would really search out. I certainly don't think it's as good as the hype, but I didn't really like the Flying Dog beers that a lot of people seem to love either.
YMMV

Overhyped? Definitely. Crap? Not necessarily. I'm not a big fan of Fat Tire, it's just too bland. Some of New Belgium's other brews are quite tasty, but in a country where Bud Light is the top-selling beer, perhaps it should not be surprising that the blandest of a craft brewer's offerings is the most popular.
Edit to add:

As far as Flying Dog goes, I used to feel the same way but my opinion changed over the last few months. First off, their winter warmer K-9 is a great beer. Next, Gonzo (their imperial porter) is awesome and finally just yesterday I had their Double Dog Double Pale Ale and it was excellent. These three beers definitely won me over.
So I walked into the gas station last night and noticed we got fat tire!
