Just a few minutes ago the House, by a vote of 79-1, approved the Senate’s amendments on H. 4572 , which means that SC will finally (once the governor signs the bill) have legal beer tasting in retail stores, at breweries, and direct sales of 1 case (or 4 growlers) per day from breweries.
The vote
Cheers to Jaime and David from Coast Brewing for all their hard work getting this bill through the Statehouse!
Oh, in other news – our street address is no longer 301 Ridge Road. The correct address is 510 Ridge Road.
It seems that Rep. Steve Parker from Spartanburg was the one Nay vote to the amendment. I wonder what his motivation for voting against it was.
