From the Asheville Citizen-Times‘ Beer Guy:

Some have wondered about the changes in the beer lineup at McCormick Field, home of the Asheville Tourists baseball team.

Skyland Distributing (Miller, Coors, Yuengling) is gone this season. Its departure is unrelated to the new ownership of the Tourists, team general manager Larry Hawkins said. The Tourists and Skyland were unable to complete a business agreement, he said.

Budweiser of Asheville has increased its presence at the park, and Empire Distributors also has a strong lineup of brew.

Two local breweries remain at the park as well: Highland and French Broad.
