In Wyoming, a Beer Brawl Breaks Out Over Buffalo Bill
Two Businessmen Launch New Brews Named After Wild West Legend; Feud Coming to a Head

A river-rafting outfit boasts, on a big sign out front, that it was founded by Buffalo Bill's great-grandson.
Yet there has never been a Buffalo Bill beer here—until now.
