4.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

  The Company is involved from time to time in claims, proceedings and
litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not
believe that any such claim, proceeding or litigation, either alone or in the
aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

5.  SEGMENT INFORMATION:

  The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (SFAS
131) "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
during 1998. Following the provisions of SFAS 131, the Company is reporting
segment information in the same format as reviewed by the Company's management
(the "Management Approach"), which is organized around differences in products
and services. All segment information is presented here except for the capital
expenditures and the total asset line items for 1998 because obtaining the
information was impracticable.

  Products and Services

  The Company's reportable segments include brewery operations, soda operations
and alehouses. Brewery operations include the production and sale of Pyramid
Ales and Thomas Kemper beers. Soda operations include the production and sale of
Thomas Kemper Soda Company products. The third segment consists of two full-
service alehouses, which market and sell the full line of the Company's beer and
soda products as well as food and certain merchandise.

  Factors used to identify reportable segments

  The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
distinct and different products and services. These segments are managed
separately because each business requires different production, management and
marketing strategies.

  Measurement of segment profit and segment assets

  The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies.  The Company evaluates performance
based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes not including
nonrecurring gains and losses.  The Company records intersegment sales at
current market prices.

Segment profit and segment assets are as follows:

</TABLE>

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998

  Gross Sales.  Gross sales were $6,227,000 in the first quarter ended March 31,
1999 compared to $6,209,000 in the same quarter of 1998.  This small increase in
gross sales was due to increased Alehouse sales, offset by a decrease in
wholesale beer sales while soda product sales were flat.  Alehouse sales
increased 13.2%, from $1,450,000 to $1,641,000, due to increased sales prices
and patronage at both alehouse restaurants.  Wholesale beer sales decreased 4.3%
to $3,831,000 in the first quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $4,004,000 in the
same quarter of 1998.  This decrease was due to a slight volume decrease and a
reduction in revenues per barrel due to an increase in draft beer sales as a
percentage of total beer sales from 38.3% in first quarter of 1998 to 41.5% in
first quarter of 1999.  Sales of Thomas Kemper Soda products remained unchanged
from the same quarter of 1998 at $755,000 and 5,800 barrels shipped.

  Excise Taxes.  Excise taxes totaled 5.7% and 5.8% of gross sales for the
quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

  Gross Margin.  Gross margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 21.1% in
the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from 18.7% in the same quarter of 1998. This
increase as a percentage of net sales was due mainly to a greater proportion of
beer production at the more efficient Berkeley production plant and a shift in
product mix to higher margin products.

  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 16.0% to $1,811,000 or 30.8% of net sales for
the first quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $2,157,000 or 37% of net sales for
the same quarter of 1998.  This 

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
decrease resulted from planned sales and marketing expenditure reductions and a
decrease in non-recurring costs related to the upgrading of the Company's
computer systems, legal and other expenses in the first quarter of 1998.

  Other Income, net.  Other income, net was approximately $100,000 and 1.7% of
net sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 1999 compared to $84,000 and
1.4% of net sales in the same quarter of 1998.  The increase can be attributed
to increased parking and interest income and decreased other expense during the
quarter ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same quarter of 1998.

  Income Taxes. The Company recorded no income tax benefit for the first quarter
ended March 31, 1999 compared to the $346,000 benefit in the same quarter of
1998. The Company has established a valuation allowance to offset the further
accumulation of deferred tax assets that can arise from recurring tax benefits
associated with pre-tax losses.

  Net Loss. The Company reported a net loss of $470,000 for the first quarter
ended March 31, 1999 compared to a net loss of $635,000 in the same quarter of
1998. The decrease in net loss was the result of increased alehouse sales,
higher gross margin on wholesale beer sales and a reduction in selling, general
and administrative expenses, offset by the elimination of a tax benefit for the
loss in the first quarter ended March 31, 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

  Net cash provided by operating activities during the first quarter ended March
31, 1999 was approximately $294,000 due primarily to the offset of depreciation
and amortization expense to the net loss for the quarter.  Net cash used in
investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was $248,000 resulting
from funds used to upgrade computers and installation of production equipment at
the Berkeley Brewery.  At March 31, 1999, the Company had working capital of
$6,390,000 compared to $6,453,000 at December 31, 1998.

  The Company has a $10 million line of credit (the Line of Credit) for short-
term operating needs. The Line of Credit revolves through April 30, 2000, during
which time the payments are interest only. At that date, any outstanding balance
will be due in full. Borrowings under the Line of Credit will accrue interest,
at the Company's option, at either the bank's prime rate or at LIBOR plus 100
basis points. Up to $5 million of the line of credit may be used to finance
acquisitions. Amounts used to finance acquisitions may be converted to a four-
year fully amortizing term loan, with an additional option to fix the rate of
interest at the bank's prime rate plus 125 basis points.

  Future capital requirements may vary depending on such factors as the cost of
acquisition of businesses, brands and real estate costs in the markets selected
for future expansion, whether such real estate is leased or purchased and the
extent of improvements necessary. Capital expenditures in 1999 are expected to
be less than 1998 expenditures. Planned projects include the continued upgrading
of brewery equipment and alehouse facilities in the Seattle and Berkeley
locations.  While there can be no assurance that current expectations will be
realized and plans are subject to change upon further review, the Company
believes that its cash reserves, together with cash from operations and
borrowings under the Line of Credit, will be sufficient for the Company's
working capital needs during 1999.

  The Company's future cash requirements and cash flow expectations are closely
related to its expansion plans. The Company generally expects to meet future
financing needs through cash on-hand, cash flow from operations and, to the
extent required and available, additional bank borrowings.

YEAR 2000

  The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year.  Any of the
Company's computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  If not addressed,
the direct result could be a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process customer transactions or engage in similar normal business
activities.

  The Company's Year 2000 Project is proceeding on schedule. Early in 1998, the
Company began a project to improve its information systems by replacing existing
business software. The new system replaces all critical systems and
approximately 90% of all computer systems which the Company's inventory showed
to be affected by the year 2000 issue. The Company's inventory 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
revealed no other significant problems arising from non-compliant computer chips
embedded in other equipment. The total cost of the Company's Year 2000 Project
is approximately $500,000, including the cost of installing the business
software. Approximately $430,000 has been incurred as of March 31, 1999 and the
project is expected to be completed by mid-1999.

  The Company is dependent upon certain suppliers and its wholesale customers.
There are plans to communicate with these companies to assess their readiness
for the year 2000. Contingency plans will be made where practicable to cope with
interruption of supplies or services and failures by wholesalers to properly
service the Company's markets. However, it should be noted that there are many
cases, such as utility supply and servicing of remote markets, where no feasible
alternatives are available to the Company and the Company is vulnerable to
failures by external third parties.

  Although management anticipates that its systems and applications will be year
2000 compliant on a timely basis, there can be no assurance that the systems of
other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be year 2000 compliant
in the same time frame. Any such failure on the part of other companies with
whom the Company transacts business, to be year 2000 compliant on a timely
basis, may have an adverse impact on the operations of the Company.
