For the first half of my life (~15 years) I lived in Champaign-Urbana Ill.
During this time I recall two brands of beer that seemed to be very popular
in that area (or so you would think from watching TV commercials).  These
were Blatz and Stag.  I know that Blatz is still being made, but with small
breweries going out of bussiness every year, I was wondering if Stag Beer
was still around.  I'm assumeing, of course, that this was a small regional
brewer since that area was the only place I have ever seen it.  With the
exception of very brief visits, I havn't been back to that area for over
ten years.  Now that I'm an adult and an experianced beer drinker (even
started a can and bottle collection), who likes to root for the little guy,
I've often wonderd about Stag.  I also still have hopes of experianceing
this brew.  Can someone out there fill me in?  Thanks in advance.
