All,
I have recently had challenges finding Redbridge stocked in many of our
local stores (King Soopers and Walmart).
I asked the manager at one of the King Soopers stores about it and he
researched why and discovered (through his distributor) that Anheiser Busch is
considering discontinuing it due to high costs and low sales. We now have a
few options in Gluten Free beer, but until now, this has been the most
available option. It has been available in many major supermarkets, liquor
stores, restaurants and recently in some baseball and football stadiums as it
is easier to have distributors supply it from Anheiser Busch. To lose this
option would be a set back (in my opinion) to us that are gluten free. It is
something that has made my life feel more normal.
I wrote Anheiser Busch already, pleading with them to not discontinue this
beer. Even if Redbridge may not be your beer of choice, it is often times
the only choice we celiac's have. Please write to Anheiser Busch and ask
them to NOT discontinue this wonderful option for us! They need to know it is
wanted and must be kept available. After the strides that have been made,
being able to have a beer over dinner in many restaurants (Maggianos, some
P.F. Changs and others), enjoying a beer in some ballparks (Coors Field,
Turner Park, and more), to all of a sudden lose this option would be a HUGE
setback. I was encouraged that it would be more and more available in many
more places! Now it seems it may be taken away.
