<\/a><\/p>\n In a scurried attempt to play catchup on an intriguing piece<\/a> of legislation<\/a> in Michigan last week, we totally missed the fact that Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels signed HB 1054<\/a> in to law — the 3 Floyds Amendment.<\/p>\n That bill includes legislation that allows small brewers in Indiana to brew more beer and still be considered a “small brewer.” The cap remains at 30,000 barrels per year but beer that is brewed for consumption and distribution outside<\/em> of Indiana is no longer included in that figure.<\/p>\n The new law means some of Indiana’s not-so-small, small brewers like 3 Floyds, Sun King and Upland will continue to receive tax breaks, self-distribution rights and on-site sale privileges. We hope this also encourages brewers smaller than those three to grow knowing the state has their back.<\/p>\n Gumballhead’s all around!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Legislation raising the barrel cap on Indiana brewers, which we are choosing to call the 3 Floyds Amendment, has been signed into law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[500],"tags":[359,456,101,457],"yoast_head":"\n
