Reason.com: Craft Brewers Face Regulatory Challenges

Craft Brewers Face Regulatory Challenges
As the annual Craft Beer Conference converged this year in Washington, DC, changing regulations are both helping and hampering the growing industry.
Finding buried treasure
It pays to have a wife who loves a good bargain.
When My wife goes grocery shopping, she always checks that spot in the back where the market sticks its day-old stuff and close-outs. Twice now, I've gone with her to an Albertson's with a good beer selection and found buried treasure back in that hiding place. Once before, it was a couple of bombers of Sierra Nevada Torpedo. Today, it was two 6-packs of Stone Ruination IPA for half off. As far as I can tell, they were back there just to make room in the cooler for something else.
Abita Brewing
I tried to post this a while back when I was in New Orleans...
Should you find yourself in New Orleans, try a few beers from Abita Brewing. They're a local brewery and they make some very good beers. Turbodog was my favorite, but the Amber and the Golden were good too.
