It wouldn't surprise me, but it would suck.
I have been buying it at the local Binny's up here in Chicagoland for a couple of years, and now I have even found it at the WalMart in Branson West. With that kind of distribution, they are obviously wanting to get paid, and selling out to big beer would be a way to do that. I hate big beer. |

This.
Jeff City got it's first Microbrew in town a few years ago and it's amazing how much better even bad beer tastes over distributed product...

There's this...
http://beerpulse.com/2013/02/bouleva...rk-in-chicago/ Then there's microbrews competing with each other (as well as big beer companies which own some microbrews) for limited tap space and the whole rotating beers craze. At the end there's a blvd vp saying he wants to sell more beer and it's hard to build a brand with too many choices of brewers and beers being swapped out all the time. http://www.takepart.com/article/2012...-big-name-beer Going big beer wouldn't surprise me. That's the objective of many small business owners. Grow it until you can sell it for millions of dollars. Nothing wrong with that.

Will do Mr. flopnuts, in the spring. Hopefully it will be the final move by then. I was just down there for a torrid paced 4 days by myself, getting some fall planting and clean up done.

There are several of us that felt the same way about the Sam Adams Octoberfest this year. It just wasn't the same as the last several years.

Would hate to see Boulevard go the way of other microbrews. But... I can only get it when I'm in the mid-west, which I am only rarely.

The offer they made basically couldn't be turned down by the board, especially given the financial state they were in at the time. Had they not agreed to the deal InBev likely would have forced a takeover by buying massive shares of stock. What AB did do is get themselves in an unnecessary bind financially and left themselves vulnerable. |
