Yep, Woodchuck (Green, Amber, and Dark & Dry) used to be the only three commonly around, close to 20 years ago (1999-2001ish) up here in the Minneapolis market, then Ace came along, and then Crispin started up as a local before they got sold to Miller-Coors.

Ace has been around the upper midwest (MSP-region) for almost a couple decades now—both the pear and the apple.

You forgot the “because brown” rule, which seems to eliminate the paradox for 99.999% of them

Thanks for the links, HML!!

“The Republicans control all 3 branches of the federal goverment”
