let's get this out of the way f%#* Anheiser Busch and F the Oregon State U employee who handed over the marketing rights for what i assume to be a pittance. And yeah i know FlatTail Brewing probably wouldn't mind cashing in the way Ten Barrel did but for now they are making they are still making beer without corporate taint in it. But AB really shouldn't be sending Tweets That Make Fun of Old People . Product Boycotts have happened for less. All this about a stolen slogan that isn't exactly inventive:

All this about a stolen slogan that isn't exactly inventive: BS on AB's part....but Flat Tail beer has its own "taint'.....yuck. Also, the "old" guy that they are insulting is a friend of mine and not really that old. Note- I consider under 50 "not that old"

The original 10 Barrel people have been huge Beaver fans since they popped out of the womb. They have backed the Beavers with big bucks since before Flat Tail was even a concept. And they still run the operation. Great guys and gal. Their original bar was known to the Bend locals as the dam bar even with Bend being a ducker town.
Still, I haven't drank a 10 Barrel brew since they sold to AB. They still brew award winning beverages, but I won't test them out.

lol, who cares? Support local beers only...let those sell-outs fall by the wayside. Props to the original owners cashing out but that doesn't mean I still have to support the brand.

Props to the original owners cashing out but that doesn't mean I still have to support the brand. agreed but here's where they get tricky: Can you really tell who sold out? Who sold out partially? Who sold out so completely that they brew their swill out of state and ship it under the "local" label?

Widmer was allowed to do it's own thing until just recently taken over (at a much cheaper price mind you) by Bud and Company. But now...DEAD TO ME!
