Now if you live in Minnesota and have not been paying attention to the shutdown, I’m guessing that some of you will sit up and take notice after hearing this. Apparently, MillerCoors beer supplier missed the June 13th deadline to renew its license for “brand label registration” and it can’t be processed until after the government shutdown is over.

Department of Public Safety spokesperson Doug Neville said that if MillerCoors does not cease its merchandise sales in Minnesota, it will be in violation of the law. Meanwhile, MillerCoors says it has no plans to pull its inventory out of Minnesota.
It is kind of funny and a little sad to think that this could be the issue that puts enough pressure on lawmakers to make a deal with the Governor–Minnesotans not being able to get their booze on.
Of course while circling your lovely world, drink responsibly.
