Many businesses like breweries have been struggling during this health pandemic. Castle Danger Brewery in Two Harbors say a state law limiting who can sell growlers is making business hurt even more. On Friday, a group of state lawmakers visited the brewery to hear more about the issue.
Castle Danger is one of five Minnesota breweries in the country along with Fulton, Surly, Schell's and Summit that can not sell to go beer due to the states current growler cap.
"What's frustrating about that is that it is so much part of the experience of a tap room and is so much a part of our growth. It's a marketing tool and has allowed a brewery in a town of 3,300 people to become the fifth largest in the state," said Lon Larson, the vice president and co-owner of Castle Danger Brewery.
