(1) Potential realizable value is based on the assumption that the Common Stock
    of the Company appreciates at the annual rate shown (compounded annually)
    from the date of grant until the expiration of the 10 year option term.
    These numbers are calculated based on the requirements promulgated by the
    Securities and Exchange Commission and do not reflect the Company's estimate
    of future stock price growth.
 
(2) All options shown granted in fiscal 1997 become exercisable as to 25% of the
    shares subject to the option exercisable starting one year after the date of
    grant and an additional 1/48th of such shares subject to the option becoming
    exercisable each month thereafter. Under the 1995 Stock Option Plan, the
    Board of Directors retains the discretion to modify the terms, including the
    price, of outstanding options.
 
(3) Options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of
    the Company's Common Stock, as determined by reference to the closing sale
    price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the day

     Except as set forth below, the Company currently has no employment
contracts with any of the Named Executive Officers, and the Company has no
compensatory plan or arrangement with such Named Executive Officers where the
amounts to be paid exceed $100,000 and which are activated upon resignation,

Plan. The grant is subject to a one-year vesting period with 25% of the shares
vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and at a rate of 1/48th of

a provision which accelerates all vesting upon a change of control of the
Company, the effectiveness of a merger or reorganization of the Company or the
sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. In addition, Mr.
Atkins' offer letter entered into in connection with his employment with the

$1.25 per share to Philip Marineau, Chairman of the Board of Directors pursuant

a one year vesting period beginning on February 11, 1997 with 1/12th of the
shares vesting each month after the vesting commencement date. Mr. Marineau's
agreement contains a provision which accelerates all vesting upon a change in
control of the Company in the event the successor corporation does not agree to
assume the option or to substitute an equivalent option.
 
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
 
     The Company's 1995 Director Option Plan provides for the non-discretionary
automatic grant of options to each non-employee director of the Company
("Outside Director"). Each Outside Director was automatically granted an option
to purchase 15,000 shares upon the effective date of the Company's initial
public offering which vests at a rate of 25% on the first anniversary of the
date of grant and at a rate of 1/48th of the shares per month thereafter. Each
new Outside Director is automatically granted an option to purchase 15,000
shares upon the date on which such person first becomes a director which vests
at a rate of 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and at a rate of
1/48th of the shares per month thereafter. Subsequently, each Outside Director
is granted an additional option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock at the
next meeting of the Board of Directors following the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders if, on such date, he or she has served as a director for at least
six months, which vests at a rate of 25% on the first anniversary of the date of
grant and at a rate of the shares per month thereafter. The exercise price of
options granted to Outside Directors must be 100% of the fair market value of
the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. On July 22, 1997, Messrs.
Bronder, Marineau, O'Rourke and Sortwell and Ms. MacLean were each granted an
option to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise
price of $5.875 per share. On July 22, 1997, Mr. Marineau was granted an option

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
 
     In February 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with Mark Bozzini
in connection with his retirement as President, Chief Executive officer and a
director of the Company, the terms of which provide that the Company shall pay
Mr. Bozzini a monthly retainer until February 1998 for an aggregate amount of
$280,000.00 in consideration for Mr. Bozzini's exclusive consulting services to
the Company.
 
     In October, 1995, the Company entered into a nine year Manufacturing
Services Agreement ("the Stroh Agreement") with the Stroh Brewery Company
("Stroh") of Detroit, Michigan, pursuant to which, the Company is obligated with
certain limited exceptions, to brew all of its beers at the Stroh breweries. The
Company pays Stroh a manufacturing services price equal to the aggregate of a
contractually specified brewing fee and the cost of materials for all beer
shipped. During fiscal year 1997, the Company paid Stroh an aggregate amount of
$28.6 million and had accrued expenses payable of $1.2 million as of December
31, 1997, pursuant to the terms of the Stroh Agreement. In connection with the
Stroh Agreement, the Company issued a warrant to Stroh to purchase 1,140,284
shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $14 per share. As a
result of this warrant, which has not been exercised, Stroh is the beneficial
owner of approximately 9.65% of the outstanding Common Stock and Christopher T.
Sortwell, a director of the Company, is also the Executive Vice President and
Chief Financial Officer of Stroh.
 
     The Company believes that the transactions set forth above were made on
terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from unaffiliated
third parties. All future transactions, including loans, between the Company and
its officers, directors, principal shareholders and their affiliates will be
approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the
independent and disinterested outside directors and will continue to be on terms
no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from unaffiliated third
parties.
