Tally’s Take

Foraged hibiscus, pikake and local honey. Island-inspired is a phrase most breweries use loosely; here it describes the actual ingredient list.

    What the sources say

    54% Class A, 53% Class P, 58% Class B disclosed at snapshot; do not extrapolate beyond date. Source: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1748070/000174807026000004/form_car.pdf

Ownership history is kept as dated events, so a change of owner never overwrites the one before it.
