what i actually said
rather than what is written here, what i actually said is:
Consumers may not be aware of the restriction initially because they notice they have a somewhat bigger variety of beer to choose from at certain locations. However, many retailers who wanted to sell new beer, and brewers and distributors who wanted to get new products into those stores, can’t. Nine out of ten grocery stores, and all convenience stores, don’t have and may never be able to obtain, the right type of license to sell the new beers. I can understand the perspective that at least some progress was made, but I figure, given that this is Alabama, it’ll be another 50 years before this arbitrary legal restriction is removed so that brewers, distributors and consumers can truly enjoy a craft beer free market.
not that it’s a big deal. it’s irrelevant. i just want to be clear.
