NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
(Unaudited)

which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair

statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis provides information which
management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the
Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere herein.
Statements in this Form 1O-QSB that are not statements of historical
or current fact constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other unknown
factors that could cause the actual results of the Company to be materially
different from the historical results or from any future results expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. In addition to statements that
explicitly describe such risks and uncertainties, readers are urged to
consider statements labeled with the terms "believes," "belief," "expects,"
"intends," "anticipates" or "plans" to be uncertain and forward-looking. The
forward- looking statements contained herein are also subject generally to
other risks and uncertainties that are described from time to time in the
Company's reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 were $9,391,316 as
compared to sales of $6,967,264 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 were $4,030,213 as compared to
sales of $2,255,136 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The cost of
goods sold as a percentage of sales for the nine-month period in 1999 period
was 80% as compared to 92% for the comparable 1998 period. The decrease in
cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, is due primarily to the additional sales of products from
the Pittsburgh Brewery Co., which affords the Company a significantly greater
gross margin percentage.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine-month period
ended September 30, 1999 were $2,249,932 as compared to $1,301,116 for the
respective 1998 period. The increase in the nine months ended September 30,
1999 results from acquisition expenses as a result of the due diligence
process associated with the Pittsburgh Brewery coupled with expansion into new
products provided by the Pittsburgh Brewery Co.,certain expenses increased as
a result of added warehousing and salespeople salaries, automobile expenses,
legal fees, office expenses, repairs and maintenance expenses.
Interest expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 was
$40,381 as compared to $43,653 for the respective 1998 period. The decrease in
the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 is due to the reduction of
debt. Interest income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 was
$56,151 as compared to $91,608 for the respective 1998 period. The decrease in
the nine-month period resulted from the decrease in average cash balance
invested in the Vista account.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 was $429,106. The increase in inventories of $294,956 was mostly
offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of
$303,278.
WORKING CAPITAL DECREASED FROM $2,457,022 AT DECEMBER 31, 1998 to
$2,161,691 at September 30, 1999 as a result of the net loss of $328,111
for the nine-month period.
At September 30, 1999, the Company's primary sources of liquidity
were $1,559,772 in cash, $683,143 in accounts receivable.
Management believes it has sufficient sources of working capital
to adequately meet the Company's needs through the end of 1999,
CAP Communications Ltd. was formed in November 1998 to explore,
as an ancillary to beverage sales, the rapidly expanding prepaid phone
card market. Within New York City, the bulk of phone cards sales occur
within ethnic neighborhoods, with major sales occurring within the
Hispanic based communities. Given Capital Beverage's well established
position in local Hispanic retail markets and its connection with the
business owners, phone cards may serve as a significant source of new
revenues to Capital's expanding beverage sales. The synergism of the two,
beer sales and phone cards, may prove to be the catalyst, which sparks
continued revenue growth for Capital Beverage. Working in conjunction with
Orion Telecommunications Corporation, with offices in New York, Capital
Beverage has begun an infrastructure development to explore this new
potential market Orion has agreed to provide funding to Capital Beverage
which will allow Capital Beverage to determine what course of action to
take to make their card a success here in New York.
YEAR 2000
The Company recognizes that a challenging problem exists in that
many systems worldwide do not have the capability of recognizing the year
2000 or the years thereafter. No easy technological "quick fix" has yet
been developed for this problem. While the issue is not of significance
for the Company because of its minimal reliance on computers, this "Year
2000 Computer Problem" creates risk for the Company from unforeseen
problems in its own computer systems and from third parties with whom the
Company deals. Such failures of third parties' computer systems could have
a material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to conduct its
business in the future.
