It’s Hangover
Thursday, how’s your head? That F’ing
Monkey has been very, very careful to stay away from politics. It’s something I’m pretty happy about. My political views have no place in articles
talking about comics and kid’s toys.
Sometimes when talking beer we have to talk about the legality of
things, today we’re talking about growlers.
Growlers are very
important to small breweries and brewpubs.
All they are is reusable bottles that are filled at the tap. So imagine you’ve found this great restaurant
and they make their own beer. The food’s
great, the beer is better, and you want to take some beer home with you. It’s the only way to take home a beer that is
only available in kegs. Currently in
Florida you can by a 32 ounce beer growler.
The standard size for the rest of the country is 64 ounces, that’s right
Florida is the only state in the US that can’t sell the 64 ounce size.
It seems like an
easy law to pass, but it has failed before.
Beer distributors have their own lobbyists and they don’t want the competition. You won’t see it part in the attacks of
course. Those speaking against the
larger growlers will hide the real reason behind safety arguments. This is a bill that can really help those
smaller craft breweries and brew pubs, it’s a good thing. In something that’s almost unheard of these
days the bill is being sponsored by both a Democrat and a Republican. Hopefully with all that support Floridians
will be enjoying 64 ounce growlers soon.
Would certainly you such as the protection of recognizing the history of those around you? Recognizing your next-door neighbors, colleagues, church customers, the individual that functions at the gas terminal, an instructor, or any person that simply does not rather appear? The means to get these details are from a cop's rap sheets orange county arrests inspection.
