    Yeah, I think it's pretty much a done deal that, at least, Yuengling (and its ~2.8 million barrels) will be moved into the "craft" column, but Gatza's statements have usually been preceded by "if ", and he has said it'll be determined on a brewery-by-brewery basis.

    I'd think that smaller brewers like Straub and Schell - maybe Narragansett, despite being all contract? - will also be shifted over but those will only add around another 200-300k bbl. at best. (At least, they should be moved since membership in the B.A. does not determine "craft" or "non-craft" - at least, it shouldn't :wink:).

    It will be interesting to see what happens to the heavy adjunct/FMB companies like The Lion, Minhas, City or the contract-brewed adjunct companies Pabst, Pittsburgh (Iron City) etc. NAB/Genesee will probably remain "non-craft" due to the foreign ownership but, you never know.

    Guinness and Negro Modelo. I put Sam Adams in that category as well.

    The champagne - ICE cold stove pipe cans while sitting in a tube aimlessly floating down a river is my idea of white trash heaven.

    I really like Dos Equis, used to get a great deal during Taco Tuesday where I used to live in New York. I also have fond memories of Fosters.

    ??? There is a "low budget" 6-pack store I go by on my way home now and again. US1 in Bensalem just outside North Philly. Used to be $2.09 for a 40! Haven't stopped in there in about 6 months. They got all those malt liquors...I know because a 16oz can of Country Club used to be $.99 !!!:wink:

    None because I don't support the lies they be spreading of what beer is. I mean seriously how cheap are you guys? A 8-10 buck six pack of something tasty is way better than lieing to yourself that its a beer and not alochol infused water
