Beer wars on Netflix

I just watched this on Netflix. The other threads are dead but I wanted to post about something that piqued my curiosity.

It's interesting that the female with Moonshot was struggling enough as it is and now the bans on caffeinated alcoholic beverages has completely shut down production for her. Not only that, but if you look at the reformulated Four Loko drinks, are now being produced by Latrobe Brewing Company - which from my understanding was purchased by Anheuser Bush.

AB bought the Rolling Rock brand (from InBev, ironically enough). The Latrobe Brewing Co contract-brews several brands, though obviously not Rolling Rock.

Moonshot seemed more like a "gimmick" than a craft beer. Reviews from ratebeer.com and beeradvocate.com were quite low and highly critical of this beer.
