http://www.syncweekly.com/news/2014/feb/11/diamond-bears-new-digs/ For the Diamond Bear detractors. Here is why they have a fighting change to improve and become relevant. It seems that they have outgrown their old business model and are expanding in order to compete in the 2014 craft beer market. If they did not make this move to a bigger facility and capacity they would be operating as if it were 1998-2003... With increased space and capacity, they could add to their lineup and be more creative. I know the people at this brewery and they are well aware of the criticisms by craft beer snobs of them being boring, bland and behind the times. They are gearing up to meet that challenge head on!
I really hope they throw some good stuff at us , I enjoy most of their brews but I agree they are old news and boring in today's market
I wish them the best, they are gonna have to stretch their legs/get way more creative to catch up to what's going on in NW Arkansas. Looking forward to the results.
I am enjoying this year's Irish Red. Say what you want about Diamond Bear, but they do have some good recipes.
