They have an audience and a price point, and they have an economy of scale because the FX Matt brewery, which owns the brand but also makes Matt's, Utica Club and a ton of contract beers, is still a very large regional brewer. It always reminded me of when Homer toured Duff and all the different beers were coming from the same vat. I drank it a bit when it first came out because my wife's family is from Utica and it was a thing to do.The beers are truly awful. Badly made. I'm not crapping on the Sam Adams tier of craft beer, of which Sam makes quality beers, and so does Harpoon. Saranac just doesn't.
