I was surprised by the response too. Especially with the snot-nosed email I sent.
I do think that responding to blogger requests for info would be appropriate for business like this, although things become highly edited depending on the writer. It might help to dispel some of the bad blood when half of a story is presented.

Inspired me to go buy a few 4-packs of OB Gordon. Damn what a great beer; cotton candy + hops = liquid hop candy. If that other Gordon could produce beer of this quality I might consider picking up some of their sixers but after much disappointment I've given up on them...If only their brewers were as good as their marketing department -

This is why I shy away from blogsites and sites like beeradvocate. Bloggers seem to be more concerned with being the first to break a story instead of blogging factual information. They have ZERO journalistic integrity and unfortunately the average blog reader does not know the difference between a blogger's opinion and an actual news article.
Just imagine the PR hit Gordon Biersch has suffered because some self indulged douche bag blogger.
Fucking Pathetic.
