Minnesota craft beverage producers on Monday renewed their push to update the state’s liquor laws to do away with Minnesota’s cap on growler sales at breweries and permanently allow for restaurants and bars to sell wine, beer and mixed drinks to go.
The producers along with Minnesota Hospitality industry leaders and state legislators said at a news conference that they’d keep up a public pressure campaign to advance the bill as the Legislature returns for a special session next week. Legislative working groups have been attempting to negotiate state budget bills in meetings almost exclusively out of the public eye.
