Just to let you all know I have no offence to any thing said, and absolutley everyone is entiltled to thier opinions on beer. I respect that and always have, and it is more or less what I was saying. Also, some are talking of KLB brands in past tense. There is no need to. All KLB brands will continu...

All of you can only speculate what it is like to start one and go eight years. I would not trade it for...

most posts are very wide of the mark. Especially Rabbit about the raspberry wheat. Like other small brewers, KLB succumbed to obscene taxation.
