Minnesota can't sell Miller-Coors

Miller-Coors didn't get their 3 year $30 fee in on time to sell liquor in Minnesota before the government shutdown and now they will have to pull all their product (39 beers) within a few days.

Also hundreds of bars and liquor stores licenses which allows them to purchase from distributors are expiring which means they can only sell what inventory they already have.

If the shutdown continues into August, cigarette distributors might start running low as well. I have a feeling if the state starts running out of booze and cigarettes this shutdown will figure its self out quick. :lol:

Should help people perhaps drink, I dont know, water? Beer is nasty and makes people so ignorant and irritating.
