In the most recent update about the ongoing lawsuit between Boston Beer and Anchor Brewing, the man at the center of all the attention, Judd Hausner, is appears to be a very polarizing figure.
Boston Beer claims Hausner to be an expert in the beer business and that expertise is exclusively from his days at Boston Beer. Anchor's opinion is a bit more humbling: "He’s just a young guy selling beer," said Wesley Kinnear, Anchor Brewing’s attorney.
I'm sure there are and lawsuits between brewers from time to time and this one won't be the last of them. However, for one reason or another, this seems to be gaining a significant amount of attention which puts a bad taste in the mouth of fans of craft brewed "better beer". One of the things we all love the most about our beer (besides the taste) is the community and collaboration surrounding it.
Your thoughts???
