I’ve followed this a bit. One take I’ve heard is that one reason Sapporo is shuttering the brewery instead of selling it is that the Union agreements make it difficult to sell. It can’t be cheap having a brewery in prime SF.
It would certainly be interesting if they ended up buying it.
I lived for 10 years blocks from the brewery and fondly remember the musty smell it gave off during certain days of brewing. I hope someone is able to keep it alive and a co-op may be the most tenable long term solution.
