We wanted to let everyone know about an event that the TN
Craft Brewers Guild is having at Yazoo on Jan 30th (5-8pm). As some
of you know, TN has the highest beer taxes in the nation specifically due to a
17% wholesale tax levied when a wholesaler sells to a retailer. This tax makes
it more difficult for local brewers to manage rising raw material prices
because any small price increase at the brewery level is eventually multiplied
by a factor of 1.17 at your local bar! Our goal is to get the 17% wholesale tax
changed to a flat tax. So please show your support on Jan 30th and
spread the word. We need to show the state legislature that decreasing taxes on
beer is what the people want! This change would be a huge help to your local
brewers who want to keep supplied with great quality beer.
Thanks
