Any approvals for new craft beers have been put on hold. Any that had been approved before the shutdown or seasonals that have been approved in years past will still be on the shelves.

Yeah, okay. I'm talking about new beers. Victory DirtWolf for one just came out a couple weeks ago. So the government was shut down for 16 days, we're going to have a delay of 16 days at the most for new craft beers coming out. The also probably get approved way ahead of time anyway. The difference has been and will continue to be negligible.

Do you know of a single beer that's been delayed?
