No more 11 PM closing time, but it was replaced by a new rule requiring bars and restaurants to follow social distancing guidelines.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

New emergency rule is approved 3-0. No more 11pm closing time, effective immediately. ABC can now enforce social distancing guidelines with suspension of license.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

ABC Board meeting now to discuss the 11 PM closing time emergency rule that was previously adopted July 27.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

New order to replace the closing time is being discussed now. It would essentially require licensees to comply with state social distancing guidelines or be subject to immediate suspension of their license.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

@mkoesters77 @alabamabrewers Nope. Just craft-centric.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

Nominations now open! Free the Hops members are celebrating Alabama's best beer bars. Make sure we consider your place when we begin voting later this year.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

26 nominees approved in the first day, but we can do better, Alabama! Keep those nominations coming in.

[Free The Hops @freethehops]

To [hopefully] avoid multiple re-nominations that we have to filter through, we've posted a list of the current nominees for Alabama's Best Beer Bars

"... retail licensees, including restaurants, are now allowed 50% capacity inside, so the need to provide emergency curbside service is no longer necessary," said Argo.

[AL Brewers Guild @alabamabrewers]

COVID hurt craft beer hard, and now craft brewers looking at a 2x tax increase at the end of this year. Urge Congress to pass CBMTRA to prevent a tax hike on your community brewery.

Some establishments in Tuscaloosa are required to close their bars, others are limited to table service.

Drink local! It's not just for beer.

[AL Brewers Guild @alabamabrewers]

We partnered with the ABC to showcase local spirits at 25 of their stores.
