“I always wondered how much money that worthless politician got back from those distributors.”

In Georgia, the beer and liquor distributors have one of the most powerful powerful lobbies. Craft breweries can’t sell their own beer directly to the public without going through the monopoly distributors. So, they get around this by selling a large $10 “souvenir” glass which you can then fill (once) at the “tasting” counter.

I While I live in Virginia now my home state is Michigan and I think it is the same way there. The distributors have a lock on sales and shipping. Corruption at its finest.
