My logic could be wrong, but the way I see it is this:
Would you rather ship low quantities to 10 states and have it move quickly thus creating inadequate supply for the quantity demanded or supply only 5 states with an adequate supply in order to satisfy demand.


Either way it's disappointing for those states that are longer receiving GD products.

**I was using arbitrary numbers just to make a case**

I agree with you there. Its just pretty uncommon in todays day and age. Either companies are pulling out due to lack of business or they forgo quality to try and capitalize on that demand.

I hope they can meet demand at the tap room 5 blocks away!

It may unusual business wise, but with the craft beer market becoming more highly competitive it would be detrimental to their business to start producing a lower quality product. Customers are becoming more aware of what quality is and with user review sites ratings being posted as advertisement on shelves it is very important that the beers continue to deliver.
