@beeriter@terence_mayo@lewbryson Make no mistake: Victory and Southern Tier sold their breweries to ABV, they didn’t form a partnership. Bill and Ron cashed in to keep their autonomy amid all the takeovers, and the corporate arm has laid heavy on their portfolio.
@beeriter@terence_mayo@lewbryson St. Victorious, St. Boisterous, Storm King, V12, Moonglow, Baltic Thunder (which they revived from Heavyweight), Sunrise, Whirlwind, Helios and others...all gone...
@lewbryson Just look at how Victory’s portfolio has changed over the last decade for a depressing illustration. There’s not much differentiation in the marketplace now. You gotta brew what sells, though.
