I stand corrected. I made an error in reporting that Mountain Crest beer was non-union and defining it as scab beer. Census Beer.
The error was honest as there was no union label on the Mountain Crest beer I have seen.
I recieved a polite email from Ravinder Minhas the owner of Mountain Crest informing me of my mistake. Very gentlemanly. No lawyers, no threats. But then again any publicity is good publicity, right.
I will correct the original article and delete the references to scab beer as well as post a correction to the article I posted at ViveCanada.ca
And while his beer may be union made, it is still made in the U.S. still making it a true NAFTA beer.
Eugene,
I read on a blog posted by someone (perhaps yourself) that Mountain Crest Brewing Company beers are produced by "SCABS" and/or NON-UNIONS. As a matter of clarification, our beers are brewed, packaged and shipped by UNIONIZED PEOPLE.
I found lot of comments interesting and amusing.
I also agreed with Einstein's comment "Unthinking respect for aithority is the great enemy of truth". So true and profound.
Thanks and regards
