    Not to take away these guys' well-earned shine.I'm kinda shocked they're aren't more retro gaming-themed brews or even breweries out there, especially in the PNW. The only reason I can think of as to why not are license/legal issues with various publishers/devs/etc. BUT, pining for romanticization of the past aside, this is not to say that there isn't a sea of neo-retro indie companies out there that are worth getting more people aware of/promoting.

    I totally agree with you. I also think the few video game inspired breweries that are out there should be a bit more original....
