Vermont Bans Out of State Beer

In a shocking move this morning, Vermont Governor Jim Douglas announced that, in an effort to support local brewers, out of state beers would no longer be allowed in the State of Vermont.

“It’s a difficult time for small businesses and breweries in Vermont are feeling the impact.” Said local beer mogul, Moe Szyslak. “This move will help Vermont beer thrive.”

One of the biggest concerns is the border towns. Many Vermonters already cross into tax free New Hampshire to do their shopping and some are concerned that this may lead to them heading over the border for their drinking.

“Vermont has so many great beers, I don’t know why anyone would have to leave the state for a beer.” Szyslak continued, “I personally sell a lot of Duff in my Springfield pub, but I am not averse to selling some Otter Creek or McNeils up here.”

We will continue to keep you up to date on this story. A follow up press conference is scheduled for today, April 1st, at 4pm.

Apparently people aren’t the only ones enjoying “Philly Beer Week” – check out this video from a Philadelphia news station. Of course, as Lew Bryson points out – the esteemed media folks in the video fumble the details, but none the less – the security camera footage is quite amusing.
