    Is there any truth to the rumor that Flying Dog is pulling out of MN due to low sales?

    wouldn't be surprised, haven't purchased anything from them in probably 10 years

    It might not be due to low sales. I've heard they are having trouble keeping a beer (can't remember which one) stocked local to them due to high demand.

    I wish a few mid-tier craft breweries would pull out of Iowa to free up some shelf space for the influx of top-tier breweries that are soon coming.

    Flying Dog basically pulled out of all States to put all it's production into Dead Rise Old Bay Spice Beer.

    Ya I noticed them slowly disappearing from the shelves here in Wisconsin also. I love Raging Bitch but now that Bedlam is year round I have not purchased it in a while. Hope they are not gone forever as I really do enjoy a few of there offerings.

    It's interesting to see how much that beer is taking off out there. Really hit a chord

    They pulled out of Wisconsin last month, seems to be a scenario similar to the DogFish one a few years ago where they had to pull out of the state and get reorganized to meet demand.
