And then there was Francine and Greg Knittel.
Just a few months after the successful debut of the brewery they started with Dahl and a well-known brewmaster, the business started slipping.
Apparently, by the time Lou's friend stopped by for a drink, the brewery was no longer making its own beer.
Dahl's partners, Francine and Greg, say they didn't know what Dahl was up to at the brewery.
And they were shocked when Dahl came in one day and announced he was shutting down the whole thing.
Francine and Greg say they not only lost $250,000 of their own money, they'd encouraged friends to invest too.
And unlike Miles Davis, they felt personally betrayed by their friend, Robert Dahl.
But no one felt more ripped off than Imad Tofilis.
He thought he'd invested more than a million dollars in a vineyard.
Instead, Dahl diverted the cash, spending it on his lavish lifestyle, the brewery business, just about anything else.
