Comment on BEER LAW: Colorado Grocery Store Law back on the table by adam lamb

I think we should pressure the bill sponsors to insert language that restricts brewing companies (mainly targeted at the big three, or is it two now?? f’n mergers don’t you have enough money and market share to survive you have to squash everyone else at the expense of common sensibility in beer flavor and quality?) I believe liquor stores should still hold dominion over liquor. Just because. Good economics. Diversity in dispensary. Grocery stores can sell beer and wine, but here’s the catch and I think is a wonderful compromise, for both big beer industry and craft/micro brew industry as well as home brewers (who could stand getting on the shelves of their local beer store too). Companies must choose, either to sell in liquor stores, or grocery/convenience stores. They can not do both. Think about it. Is Bud and Coors going to sell more in a liquor store or grocery store if there is an option? of course the grocery store. So restrict them out of liquor stores so shelf space is made for craft brews from, local, national and international brands, styles and seasonals. The money makers can go make there money where they are wanted. People like myself who enjoy good beer, will have better selection and the chance to finally appreciate the way beer and wine was supposed to be in the liquor/ good beer and wine stores! Oh and down with the three tier system! Its pointless and only makes the wrong people money.

If I can provide some clarification to your readers, American Craft Beer Week is May 17-23. This year there is an ACBW homebrew recipe which is one of the Big Brew- National Homebrew Day celebration. Check it out at americancraftbeerweek.org. Should be a great warm up for ACBF and Boston Beer Week in June.

Had my first Manny’s last week – it was fantastic. I’ll definitely have it again and support the local brewers.

Comment on BEER LAW: Latest update on Colorado Grocery Store Liquor Law – HB 1279 by Gabe

I support the bill. The greater the competition for the consumers dollar the better for the consumer. These LQ stores have a virtual monopoly on the business. This new price war will be pushed all the way up the supply line. The end result, cheaper booze for all!

Frankly I’m sick and tired of paying $10 a six pack.

I’m from Chicago where lq stores and grocery stores both sell and guess what, there are still liquor stores. So…..
