So your $2 beer is either going up to $2.25 or $2.00+$.16 in tax.
That has to be the message. The state doesn't care. The state doesn't care. The state doesn't care. TAXES ARE GOING UP. This bar is taking action against this bullshit.

Now, raise the price and find a hook that puts the extra 16 cents to work against a state that doesn't care. Make it into a movement that works against the tax and every beer sold contributes in some way to the movement. Hell, in the right kind of a setting with the right kind of message you could even make the 16 cents a voluntary contribution to the cause. It's 16 cents.

Posters of Roosevelt, Jefferson and Lincoln (the faces on the dime, nickel and penny) speaking out against the added cost come to mind.

On the other hand, I don't know. It might not be that kind of bar.
