Wow, Sapporo really did fuck up Anchor Brewing! https://vinepair.com/articles/sapporo-usa-anchor-brewing-liquidation-analysis/

Remember this: Anchor survived everything — fires, depressions, recessions, everything — for nearly a century and a half before Sapporo USA came along and drove it into “dire distress” in less than half a dozen years. The company says it did everything it could; workers say it did too much, when it wasn’t doing enough.
