The fateful day has arrived andView attachment 851577 I drink my last Anchor Steam.

I think you need to pour another beer to honor the passing of your Anchor stash. A toast to the departed Anchor.

Any excuse to have another beer. ;)

And brew a steam beer soon.

Thanks for the great suggestion, @MaxStout ! I totally agree, and so:
Mexican Cake! (I need to brew this again, too.)

Fear not, sir! They got a new Fritz Maytag! They were purchased by yet another dude that couldn't bare to see his favorite brewery die.

At this point they really should register as a 501c3.

No telling if it will make money. But it may continue classic steam beer for a while, if they don't monkey with the recipe.

That's what concerns me, the new owner is in the food business so is he going to be able to hold pat on the steam beer side of the plant and not monkey around with the dumb, antique coolships and inefficient techniques employed for Steam?

He can do whatever he wants on the other side of the plant, he might even do some good with that side of the business. I just hope he recognizes (and if his statements are true, that seems to be the case [but I'll ask you to forgive me for turning a jaundiced eye to anything a billionaire has to say]) just what a treasure the dumb, inefficient Steam plant is and he leaves it alone.

Time will tell.
 
It's going on nine and I'm still waiting on that nice, cool rain. Don't make this old man walk out on the lawn and yell at you, clouds. I ain't kidding, I'll do it!

You can have some of our cold rain. It's been rainy and 60s the past week, until today. Take all our newly-hatched mosquitoes, too. :)

I'm just glad we're not getting the triple digit temps some of you out east have been experiencing.

Out back in the gazebo with an after-dinner HM hard cider.
