Even worse to me is the passing of Levitation Ale.

What's there to be added?

If being "rated" highly can't save an iconic brand, then what's left?

I'll have a pint of session-strength bitter, please.

HOW WE’RE KILLING CRAFT BEER CLASSICS: THE DEATH OF STONE RUINATION, at Love Beer Love Food

 ... Ultimately we, the craft beer people, should accept the blame for her demise. It has been proven that many of us are fickle, polygamous creatures not wed to particular craft beer brands. While nothing is inherently wrong with this sentiment, next time you visit your local beer store simply consider the implications of your choices. Then imagine a world without Dogfish 60 Minute, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, North Coast Old Rasputin or any of the classic craft beers that are truly exceptional. Are these beers still relevant? I think so. I also think it’s important to show respect to these icons by occasionally picking up a six-pack or bomber, and sharing it with friends. Not only will you get to enjoy an amazing, classic beer, you might also be saving a life.
