It would seem that Sapporo did not do enough diligence when they bought Anchor. Anchor's facilities are far too small, their infrastructure and their team not setup to brew at that sort of scale. Stone is a much better fit for what they seem to be trying to do.

That's what made it steam beer. Their setup isn't like any other brewery at all. No vats for brewing! Anchor Steam brewery is as similar as a concrete plant to other breweries. So if Sapporo bought this for $143million thinking they could make other style of beer there and didn't even do a brewery tour omfg.
