Too much competition by the weed and fentanyl industry.
Suck it up, Nanzi!
California is basically little China.

Ahh, lemme tell ya somethin’, friend… life ain’t always been kind, but one thing’s kept me warm through the fog and the freeway hum: Thunderbird, Night Train Express, Boone’s Farm, Wild Irish Rose, and ol’ dangerous Cisco. Ain’t much, but to me, they’re the five sacred elixirs—kept me company when nothin’ else would.
So when I heard one o’ them big distributors up and packed outta California, my heart nearly dropped. But bless the stars above and the corner store on Valley and Fifth—they’re still on the shelf. Like old friends in a paper bag, waitin’ on a rusty bench for a story and a sip.
Don’t matter if the label’s half peeled or the cap’s sticky. Long as I can still grab a Strawberry Hill or ride the Night Train, this drifter’s got a reason to hum a tune now and again.
California is basically little China.
Run by idiots that think they own the place ,LOL

Up vote ^^
Big names are leaving REPUBLIC NATIONAL for REYES.
Yeah, no virtue signaling here...
“Strawberry Hill “
I’m trying to keep from puking from the memories.
Sounds more like they’re losing brands, rather than California regulation/practices.
I asked, big party?
They laughed and one said they were from Napa, CA and found it cheaper to buy Napa wine in NH and ship it home than to buy it a mile from their house.
The Daily Male tries to plant the narrative that Republic didn't go to California and "Get To Know" CALIFORNIA suppliers and consumers by rubbing shoulders with Homos, Trannys, Pederasts and Commies and paying 'em off for ease of distribution.
Aside: Republic is the opposite of Mob Rule, California IS Mob Rule.
This could be a blow to the legislators who may have to figure out where their free booze will come from.
I don’t think I’ve had Strawberry Hill since high school, over 50 years ago. And I’m not about to drink any now, nostalgia be damned.
They're losing brands because of California regulation/practices and California kneeling to Woke.
I wish tons more companies would do this. Just shut Ca off and tighten their belts.
Ain’t Communism wonderful.
