    This is a REALLY interesting scenario that should benefit both businesses. It'll allow for Helltown to increase its distribution and will give Rivertowne some financial stability. Plus, Shawn (Helltown's owner) is a genuinely nice dude. Not many of those to the dozen in craft beer these days.

    One of the best IPAs I've had

    Well I hope this works, Rivertowne has been struggling for a while. Unfortunately it seems that sometimes when one brewery acquires another only one is left standing in the end (Left Hand/Tabernash for example).

    Now that they ditched those cheesy fish-themed labels, maybe their sales will pick up a bit.
