Yep. If anything, Trump should have used the DPA to get millions more growlers manufactured by now!
Free beer! Isn’t alcohol a proven disinfectant?
Wonder what Eliot Ness would have thought?
Free Beer Tomorrow?
Let’s get drunk, on the house! Yay!
Or roll those kegs into the packed parking lots of the local Wally World and sell them for a nickel a cup, about what it costs to manufacture the stuff without the taxes. The cops could even hang out and some hiding places on the roads out and generate some revenue for the state (and the legal profession) for all those buzzed drivers. Said revenue could go back into generating more stimulus payments.
One million kegs of beer on the wall,
One million kegs of beer,
You take one down and pass it around,
Nine hundred and ninety nine thousand
nine hundred and ninety nine kegs of beer on the wall.
(this is gonna take a while)
I was thinking the same thing. At least sell it at a discount to the retail market. I am sure individual buyers would be willing to take it off their hands, and I am saying this as a non-drinking "teetotaler".

Beer.
Stadiums are the best place in the weight to have social distancing. Put 4 or 5 empty stadium seats between every drinker and open the kegs.
Oh yeah... tape off 3 out of every 4 urinals. Can’t have the virus jumping you in the john.
Well, ship it this way!
Brewers and keg owners are hoping to regain their containers - which can run $100 to $120 apiece - in case they get wrapped up in bankruptcy proceedings.
In case the beer does expire, Samuel Adams owner Boston Beer Co plans to do their continued plan of recapturing its ethanol for gasoline.
New York brewers Montauk Brewing Co. and AB InBev-owned Blue Point Brewing Co. are switching their packaging, putting more beer in cans to sell in liquor or grocery
The distiller, The Better Man Distilling Co., is using the beer to make sanitizer.
“ERRRRRRPPP!!!”
Are they asking for volunteers to sample it to make sure it’s still good?.
Turn our beef herds into Waygu.
Has this guy been trying to drink all of the excess.
Or is he using common core math.
Kegs weigh less empty obviously but kegs are still the same size. Unless I’m missing something like new crushable kegs.
‘This is a hot potato because none of our businesses are set up to return massive amounts of beer,’ shared Dan Vorlage, marketing head for Denver-based MicroStar Logistics LLC. ‘It takes three times as many trucks to transport full kegs than empty ones.’
Issue the new Covus 19 income supplements in optional beer coupons which can be used to buy beer at discount.
Lots of that extra income is gonna be used to buy beer anyway.
