    Very true as far as not ever knowing what really happened. and even if it did go to court people would wonder if the right side prevailed. Your last sentiment is something I think and hope we all can agree on. That a lot of "innocent people's jobs" are at stake. & hopefully that damage will be minimal.

    Wouldn’t be a BeerAdvocate thread if it’s not derailed on the first page and turned into a something completely different.

    Whew, I can finally rest and relax now that it's settled.

    Good for both parties I guess. I was looking forward to hearing about this documented evidence that Founders claimed they had that would unravel Evans' case though

    They'll probably claim it's on a server in Ukraine.

    Awwww, how sweet. Money made the racism feel all better.

    Those crying boycotters better still boycott so I can scoop up more of the CBS and Imperial Stout for myself. Don’t give up now, or else the world will view you as weak-willed, attention-deficited dimwits!

    I already dislike wheat beer, so if Founders is going to start adding straw, I’m boycotting so f’ing hard.

    Barley straw is fine. It’s those “other” straws that are no good. I wouldn’t want to identify which straw is barley or which straw is one of the other kind just by looking at them. I just know the other straws are bad.

    Founders should have done this months and months ago.

    After re-reading Mr. T’s statement, I wanted to vomit: It reads like fake magnanimity brought on by a newly fattened bank account.

    I think I’ll crack a Founders anything right now.
