Sam Adams Winter Classics '18...

Ha ha doesn't bother me and that sounds delicious, Flying Dog Lemon-lime Pilsner was wonderful.

If you're interested in the Black Lager (I love it) you can get it right now in their Fall pack, which I think is a pretty solid lineup this year.

 

You really Googled that phrase with the quotation marks or just the four words?

Yes, but neither of those links back up your claim that they are "losing money". Profits being down is not a "loss".

And their beer percentage of total barrelage shrinking, while the cider/FMB's are growing doesn't make the latter the "best sellers"
(yet ...).

 

Without the quotation marks. I put them in quotation marks initially to indicate which words I was googling.

They're making less money, with beer sales slipping, and the cider/FMB's are growing. Which has been the case for a couple years.

The overall point I was trying to make, was not whether or not they're actually losing money or which brands are their best sellers. It was a response to the post below:

It doesn't appear what they're doing with their beer brands is working out for them financially at all. Maybe I'm wrong though.

 

Don’t get me started with the Imperial Series. That stupid idea ruined one of my favorite beers, Sam Adams Double Bock. They took a nearly perfect dopplebock and inexplicably tuned up the ABV to 9% and put it into four packs. I’d say “worst idea ever” but then you have Imperial White, which was perhaps indeed “worst idea ever”. Yuck.

Imperial Stout was pretty nice, though. I’ll give you that.
