Yes, it would have. Mike Smith is beginning his retirement, and will likely sell most of his restaurants. This is his second sale.
Fair enough then. Thanks for clarifying.
No worries.
I think the last place to go, if it ever does, will be Joe Kools. Mike spends most of his time there, and I know it has a special place in his heart.

Hope this will answer some of your questions. Beer is here to stay and grow in Chancey Smith's. Dudley(new owner) gave me basically green light to continue. New order for Southern Tier beers has been placed with R&R. We have just released Het Anker, Garrison and Eggenberg beers.
And also, lady luck smiled at us and sent our way three kegs of Beau's draught. Stay tuned for Lugtread, Screaming Beaver and Vriends!!!
So many beers and so little time!!

Yes, thanks indeed, and BTW Milos, these new releases are INSANE. Hopsinjoor, Cuvée Blue, Samichaus, Lemon Tea on tap, with Beau's and Half Pints still to come? I'm in beer heaven! Long live Chancey Smith's! :D
