i was just going by ratebeer listings, they are listed as a brewery on ratebeer.
While Cheetah beers are brewed at Cool, the company/brand is owned by someone else. So it's a contact situation, like Denison's, St. Andre, Wolfgang's/Skeena, etc.

I've often wondered then why St. Andre and Cheshire Valley don't have their own separate listings on RB, and are lumped in with the brewery at which they contract brew, whereas Cheetah, Denison's, Wolfgang's, etc. get their own listing? Maddening inconsistency. Can anyone clarify this?

Cheshire Valley should be split out from Black Oak

is St. Andre its own company? where do they brew?

FWIW Cheshire Valley now has its own page and is recognized as a brewer on RB

Pretty sure St. Andre is its own company (owned by Doug Pengelly) and not merely a brand. The Vienna is brewed at Cool, but older beers have been brewed elsewhere. Not sure where Doug brews his one off casks for Cask Days, maybe at home.

assuming st andre is its own company it should have its own page.

they have listings under Cool and Stratford. if someone is willing figure out whats current and where it is brewed, i can send in the info and get them listed properly.
