#When we talk about this industry and it's a growing ind #I've traveled all over the United States and gone to towns like Charleston and Savannah and Hot Springs and Nashville. And i #you're going to find that those are tourism destinations just like our state. They have a craft industry that is booming. And in Louisiana #ours is not.#This bill is to clean up a 2022 piece of legislation to align business practices with reality #This is about small business brewers reinvesting in their product #reinvesting in their brands who have the means and will to create an entirely new brewery #go through the federal #state and local permitting practices. We feel like if you've brewed it great at one place #why would we prohibit them from bringing it to their second invested business to serve it?#tremendous operational efficiencies #They want to circumvent every process that puts them in the marketplace #We want to sell their product #but they don't want to do it within the construct that has been around since 1930 and has worked quite well. Not everything has to change f #specific entity within the state of Louisiana.#(The Center Square) — The Louisiana House Committee on Judiciary deferred a bill Thursday that would lessen regulatory burdens on the state'#sponsored by Rep.

Romero said. HB 821 #which is supported by the Louisiana Craft Brewer's Guild #would end these restrictions. said Cary Koch #the executive director of the Louisiana Craft Brewers Guild. Eric Avery #the president and founder of Crying Eagle Brewing in Lake Charles #told the committee his brewery would gain if it could transfer more barrels of brew between its two l #Miller-Coors #the Beer Industry League of Louisiana #the Associated Grocers and the Louisiana Restaurant Association. Their opposition centered around the three-tier system #which they say would allow craft brewers to circumvent. said Rouses Markets director of compliance Daniel Pritchett. Louisiana is ranked 5
