Same thing happened here years ago with one of the first craft breweries in the region: Shaftebury
Their cream ale was delicious and popular.
Started in the mid 80’s, sold to a big company (Sleemans) late 90’s who proceeded to shrink the lineup, market the beer as a cheap alternative rather than the premium brand it was thereby killing it’s place in the market.
At least the two guys that started and sold it allegedly made off with a kings ransom. Good, they earned it.

finally getting around to posting.
Scout & Scholar in Bardstown, Kentucky. I didn't go last time I was there because you know, Bourbon country how good could it be.
Mea culpa
from left to right:
Rind And Lime: Kettle Sour Brewed with Coriander and Sea Salt. Conditioned on Kentucky Grown Watermelon and Lime Zest.
This was amazing! pretty much a rock solid, tart, gose with a light hint of watermelon. If they canned it I would have brought some home.
Sequent: Kettle Sour Conditioned On Pomegranate, Plum And Coconut.
This was actually really good, although I did not notice the coconut. I suspect it was more to rein in the other two.
Sly: Milk Stout
Solid but compared to the sours, nothing to write home about.
Spiritual Sensei: Imperial Sour Conditioned On Tangerine, Mango, Lemon and Kaffir (Japanese Lime Leaf). In Collaboration With Gallant Fox In Louisvile, Ky.
This was another solid sour but I did not care for the character that the kaffir brought.
I also tried my wife's Allies (wheat) and Grist And Glory (amber) and both were very well done.
I will go back, and I will try more of their selection.
Here is a Finland lager beer, Karhu which means "bear." It is on the light side of the scale.
What makes it unique is that I'm drinking it in a restaurant in Lapland.

I like your wife’s tastes better
Yes to the amber - pass on the sours.
Hope you enjoyed it though.

So, sours are popular down there too.
I love tasting them but find drinking a whole pint challenging
Time to get a buzz on.
If you follow the NBA, you might get it.
dont follow the NBA anymore ( does anyone ? ) but the beer looks like I'd follow that

I banged it a couple of times before opening it so it looks like a root beer.
Bang your head!
bang a gong, get it on
I thought it was, smoke a bong, get the munchies?
On the last trip before I retire, there is a place that combines Vietnamese food and kick ass beer. This one is called Quy's Choice, a high ABV hazy IPA. Damn good.
