In days of old, when knights were bold and I was a youth, there were dozens of brands of soda and beer. There was a flavor to satisfy everyone. As many neighborhood bars as there were, almost one on each block, there were that many beer brands. All these companies were fairly small and family owned. And prices everyone could afford.
Along came Pepsi and Coke as well as Budweiser and Miller and either bought out these small companies or ran them out of business.
These big corporations flourished, since everyone flocked to them, abandoning these small companies.
Once again people are taken for a ride as micro-brewery's and soda pops with exotic names, but flavors of old are coming back. Fancy names with prices to match.
So before you reach for that Pepsi or Coke and Bud or Miller support that off brand that you really enjoy, because soon it will be gone and reincarnate itself at two or three times the price.
