Listermann Brewing says government shutdown could end up costing it $55k
Another sticking issue for Listermann is that they are waiting on new label approvals so they can’t start bottling a four-pack of their fan favorite Chickow brown ale on their new bottling line. The problem is grows even more complicated because the brewery received a $40,000 state grant to help buy the line. If the bottling line isn’t operating by the beginning of November, Listermann might have to pay back that grant to the state.

Ah so sorry, that’s the one that showed up in my Google newsfeed. Changing out link now.
Label approval by the government is one of the most stupid parts of our extreme over-regulation of the alcohol industries. It’s absurd and needs to be eliminated.
