While the spirits industry has proven to be resilient during tough times, it's certainly not immune to disruptive economic forces & marketplace challenges Our sales dipped slightly, but consumers continued to choose spirits & enjoy a cocktail w/ family & friends! #StateOfSpirits

This proposed tax increase is bad for all hospitality businesses – from distilleries to restaurants and bars – as well as consumers' wallets! We urge #Nebraska residents to make their voice heard and SAY "NO" to additional taxes on distilled spirits. ACT NOW: spiritsunited.org/nebraska-tax-f…

1,300+ Nebraskans could lose their jobs if the governor's proposal to increase spirits taxes by more than 280% goes through. Don't take our word for it - listen to local craft distiller @DrinkBrickway on how this increase would devastate their business. bit.ly/4bXZdYf

#DYK that in #Arizona, spirits-based #RTDs are taxed 1️⃣8️⃣ times higher than malt-based RTDs, even though they contain the same or lower amounts of alcohol?? #AZ residents, ask your legislators to support HB 2888 which would provide fairer tax treatment! bit.ly/3uwFzDh

@SenBillDodd @latimes @casendems Speaker Brown still has that style, there is an old rumor in Sacramento that the Speaker would donate his “old” Armani suits to a thrift store @macklemore and if you were a 38 S, which I am not, you could get a great deal! Congrats @latimesSkelton
