The head guy for BYO was more than accommodating in trying to work with the brewery, but nothing came of it but several emails between me and the editor. I even reached out to the emails on the North Coast site, which were ignored. I did not need or want anything more than my label in the mag, but this is real bad form in my opinion.

It is a shame too, I really liked several of their products and have good availability to most out here on the east coast.

That was my issue with them. If they do not follow through with the homebrewing community, you can see what kind of people they are.
I never quite understand this, now i understand the principle why you now dont purchase North Coast products, but hear me out. Obviously you like North Coast's products, but your not purchasing (as in 1 person) is not hurting their business, seems like your only punishing yourself by obstaining from something you enjoy?

A bit late to the game but what, no mention of one of the finest examples on the planet? Speedway Stout from Alesmith is easily one of the best. A 12% behemoth from one of the best breweries in the country.
