I read Pete Brown's blog this morning. He has a good take on it.
Had one of their beers in Greenwich last month, it was pretty good.

Meantime liked the packaging of New Glarus which is why they went with the cork and bail. Their IPA was hard to beat at one time, but when the price became about $12 a 750ml I quit buying it. The last beer I purchased from them was mislabeled as a stout and was at best a brown ale.
It's not a popularity contest, it's beer!
