According to the Great Falls Tribune, the former Great Falls Brewing Company building in Great Falls has burned:

This company produced Great Falls Select, probably one of most maligned beers in Montana when I was around the Park in the early 1970s. It acquired the popular nickname "Great Falls Shellac." As I recall it had about the same poor reputation that Narragansett did in New England.
It was not sold in the Park when I worked there in 1970-72 but it seems to me that it may have still been available in some nearby bars. I don't know if that is really true since those bottles would have been about 2 years old at the time but I knew a few drunks around Coram who would not have been bothered by that. I never had any so I can't attest to its quality firsthand only to its general reputation.
I think the Great Falls Select brand has been revived by another company but hopefully not its reputation.
