mh95149 If you've known him for 20 years why don't you "hook up" some of the readers of this site? We can get a free drinkin party courtesy of your buddy Einhorn. I'm pretty sure he can afford to give away a couple hundred bears. I can provide the potato chips.

Nothing unusual about family members owning both sides of a business FWIW, I've known Mitch Einhorn for about 20 years and he's a great guy.

Does this beer come with a razor to shave your chest?

Agreed - I 2nd a call for more on the politics of liquor sales in Chicago! And thanks for a Louisville feature - this will help sort out travel plans for an upcoming trip. A trip to Brownings as well as Bluegrass is in order.

The digression part ('while Mitch Einhorn owns Lush (and the Twisted Spoke) his brother Cliff and wife Roberta own the distributor') sounds like the true story.
