'United Craft' sounds so bland and un-creative that they might as well have just used a numbered corporation for the name.

I've never liked the 'Double Trouble' name all that much either. Sounds like an unlicensed board game knock-off.

Never really reached for either's product. As neutral on the merger and name change as I am on their beers.

Today's 25 cent history lessen, Old Tomorrow was John A. MacDonalds nickname. Say this for that brewer, they recognized the brewing trends of 1998.
