Beer Mints and Potato Chips

Miller Lite always has some interesting swag.  For Dry January it's mints that are supposed to taste like Miller Lite, which I guess is a good thing.  More my taste (maybe?) are potato chips that taste like a citrus IPA.  Honestly, that doesn't sound great, but I would try them.

AB InBev does Paris

As a beer sponsor backs out  in protest of Russian and Belarussian athletes being allowed to participate in the olympics, AB InBev steps in to be the beer sponsor.  Good for them, they always do make sound business decisions.  

Mikkeller goes macro and our favorite gueuze scales back

Carlsberg has acquired a minority stake in Mikkeller.  They wanted to buy them outright, but Mikkeller wasn't up for that.  More sadder for us, Drie Fonteinen announced team changes and the climate of craft beer means they'll be scaling back production.  Hold on with all you've got, 3F.

Uber drops Drizly

After acquiring the company for over $1 Billion just a few years ago, Uber is shuttering the Drizly alcohol delivery service.  Since you can still get alcohol via UberEats it may just be unloaded the name and some of the tech, but that's speculation.

New Jersey's beer bill is SIGNED!

We've followed this all year and it is done.  The governor signed the bill and brought much needed relief.

Local Scene

Here in Georgia Pontoon Brewing recently reopened.  They're one of the breweries caught up in the mess at Bevana which forced their closure last year.  Also, visitors went to Dry County Brewing to find locked doors with no comment from the brewery as to why.  We reached out to one of the owners who told us the taproom is closed temporarily and more info will be released soon.
