THIS YEAR ('07) IN BEER

Greetings,

Over the next eleven months beer drinkers will have to deal with the following:

1) A continued effort by state legislators to bring the blood-alcohol-content maximum to .000.

2) A continued effort by state legislators to add additional limits on the shape, size, labeling and alcohol content of containers of beer.

3) A continued effort by local governments to make the purchase of beer-by-the-keg difficult for non-commercial customers.

4) A continued effort by beer consumers, retailers and wholesalers to lift the legal limit on the alcohol by volume in beer.

5) A continued growth of the number of brewpubs in the United States and Canada, and at the same time, almost no growth in the number of microbreweries.

Let me know if you agree, or not. Just click on peter.lafrance@beerbasics.com

Cheers!
