    Why is Pizza Port grouped in with Port Brewing on this site? They are separate entities, and a lot of the beers on the list are not Pizza Port beers:

    Port has its own page, and Lost Abbey has its own page. Why not Pizza Port?

    From Port's website:

    Aren’t Port Brewing and Pizza Port the same?

    Nope. Two of our founders, Vince and Gina Marsaglia, are the owners of the Pizza Port empire, and a third Port Brewing founder — Tomme Arthur — used to be head brewer at Pizza Port.
    It’s true that Port Brewing spun-off of Pizza Port several years ago, but it’s a completely separate company with its own brewers, employees and direction. Even the beer names we share with Pizza Port – Hop 15, Shark Attack, Wipeout (holdovers from when our head brewer was theirs) – have gone in different directions.
    Sure, we’re proud to have “Port” in our name, and we still stay in contact with the extended family. But like any member that grows up and moves out on their own, we’ve established our own identity and we’re making a unique mark on the world on our own terms.
    Pizza Port is an awesome place both for their tasty grub and fine grog, but if you want to know more about what’s going on there, you’ll have to check out their website (www.pizzaport.com) or give one of their locations a visit. (And if you do drop into a Pizza Port, can you do us a favor tell them we said “hi” and we’re sorry we haven’t called. We know we should, but we’ve just been really busy.)

    File a request for correction. Include the link to the web site. It's worked in other cases of confusion.

    We're already aware of this. The change is on our list. Thanks.
