Beer Deliveries Are in Danger. ACT NOW!
Do you enjoy getting beer shipped right to your door? According to state law, California breweries have always had the ability to ship Direct-to-Consumer (DtC).
But now, that opportunity may be in jeopardy.
Under the Supreme Court's 2005 Granholm v Heald opinion, a state cannot constitutionally allow in-state producers to ship directly to consumers while denying that same right to out-of-state brewers.
The California Craft Brewers Association (CCBA) wants to harmonize state law with federal law to protect our existing privileges.
SB 1198 (McGuire) protects the longstanding privileges of the craft beer industry to continue to ship beer Direct-to-Consumer. Without this legislation, beer clubs could be forced to shut down, beer tourism would come to a halt, and beer deliveries won't make it to your door.
The bill has already made it from the Senate to the Assembly. It just needs a little more love for the legislature to officially pass it.
The California craft beer industry needs our help!
What Can YOU Do?
It's pretty simple: support the bill.
All you have to do is fill out this form.
That's it!
The CCBA and Brewers Association will send a letter on your behalf to local representatives supporting the passage of SB 1198.
It is critical that you take a moment to defend beer deliveries in California and for the entire beer industry.
