The only thing I'm not excited about is Alabama's draconian beer laws. Until last year you couldn't sell any beer over 6% ABV in AL. Until the last legislative session this year breweries couldn't sell growlers of draught beer. Both of those things were overturned thanks to the work of the grassroots organization Free The Hops. AL still has bullshit - for example, it is still against AL law to sell beer in any size greater than 16oz (no bombers or 750mL bottles) - but I think that will be overturned too in the time that I am in AL. I look forward to working with that organization and educating the people of Alabama about beer and advocating for craft beer.
