Why is this a bad thing? I have so many more options than the cheap beer I started drinking. The Everyman beer still exists and many people still drink it.
There are plenty of non $10 or $15 dollar pours to keep me happy. You don’t have to wait for releases. I only participate in lottery systems for limited liquor releases, screw the lines.
Walmart claims to have it in stock at their store in Mountain View, so I'm guessing it's sold here. I haven't gone looking myself, but Anheuser-Busch certainly distributes their big brands in California. It's possible that Busch itself just isn't that popular out here by mass market standards, though?
