You think they weren't keeping up with bills or something?

This thread is quickly becoming unraveled. I hope it is over when the fat lady sings.

I was serious. I don't understand what financial issues could mean.. everyone says they make more money on draft.

Not sure why you feel the thread has become unraveled.

Someone said they didn’t pay their beer bill.

That makes sense. Very sorry to hear this. The lighthouse was always one of our favorite places to take guests.

I hope things are still good at the Lighthouse. Always enjoy going there except that it is often way too busy, but that's usually a sign of a good place. Great food, location, views, and easy parking. Usually just have the usual Mich Ultra bottle of beer as I don't drink tap beer. And the best thing about the Lighthouse is that it is a big Patriots friendly establishment. Great place to go for a game!

Always crowded but they didn't pay the beer distributor bill?? Perhaps. But also, why take kegs out now when they've had them since the beginning? Are they now storing whole gators?

Hope they were not the same owners as the one that used to own Havana, and currently owns Lopez Legacy

PicoBrew Pico Model C review | TechHive

I thought this would be great for me until I got to this part of the review.

" Finally, you shouldn’t buy the Model C if you’re looking to save money on beer. At the time of this writing, a 21st Amendment Brew Free or Die IPA PicoPak costs $26.99, while the same amount of that beer in retail can form costs about $24.50 (14 beers at $1.75). "

thank-you---it is interesting, maybe someday
