Message to Minhas: As the only brewer that manages to make worse beer than ABI and Molson-Coors, it's very ironic that you are suing them. Short's sells 20% stake to Heineken.

The aptly named Tenacity Brewing seeks to emerge from the disaster that was the water crisis in Flint, MI. Chicagoans hopeful a recent announcement from Three Floyds will bring a much-desired brewpub to the city. Sam Calagione's brilliant response to the news that an AB/InBev subsidiary is now a part-owner of RateBeer.
