Rogue Creamery and the Crux Fermentation Project in Oregon have collaborated to create Coolship Beer No. 6, an ale brewed using Rogue River Blue Cheese and aged in oak barrels for nearly two years. The unique combination has garnered skepticism from cheese connoisseurs and brewery employees alike, but the resulting flavor is described as "not too cheesy" with a slight hint of blue cheese on the finish. The beer is available for purchase at both the pub and the creamery, eliciting mixed reactions from consumers.

Metropolitan Brewing Faces Bankruptcy, Potential Closure

Metropolitan Brewing, one of Chicago's oldest craft breweries, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection due to tepid retail sales, unsustainable debt, and a rent dispute. The brewery owes over $1 million in back rent and fees to its landlord and more than $1 million to a bank for an equipment loan. Metropolitan's financial struggles began after moving to a larger location in 2017. The brewery hopes to restructure its debts and renegotiate its lease to continue operations, but if unable to do so, a sale or liquidation may be the only options. Craft beer sales have been challenging in the industry, and many closures have been attributed to lease difficulties.
