Three Cornered Beer War Looms in Indianapolis Area
A three way beer war is planned within a month among the Indianapolis, Terre Haute and Hamilton brewing companies. Indianapolis and Hamilton firms clash over prices in Hamilton while Terre Haute weighs building a Indianapolis plant after 30 000 barrels annual sales there. The dispute stems from a consolidation move in Delaware and the banishment of the Hamilton group from local brewer circles, with arrests and prosecutions hinted at as the conflict escalates toward a planned July 20 kickoff.
