Under what authority? The FAA doesn’t own the skies. Do I need their permission to fly a kite? An RC plane? A hobby rocket? why should someone have to ask the government for permission to do something this harmless?

Actually, you do, if it’s in certain areas, or over certain altitudes.
BATF is the primary controller of Model Rocketry, for example.

For RC planes, you aren’t supposed to fly over 400 feet or within vicinity of an airport without permission.

Maybe this brewery is near an airport?
