We can pretty much count our House Bill 3554 as done- passed 2nd reading yesterday and see no issues as to why it wont pass the 3rd. March 20 we had our Senate bill 423 go to Subcommittee vote and passed! In ~ 3 weeks we will go to the Full Committee. Then it is floor debate....2nd Reading....3rd reading and back to House. Yesterday was a big step but we're not there yet! A huge thank you to all the brewers who showed up at the Capital- our biggest showing yet.

2013 Pint Bill HB. 3554

Our pint bill was finally filed yesterday, February 19. As it is worded now it allows for a total of 64 ounces per person per day, still in conjunction with a "tour". So basically, you can come to our brewery and purchase up to 4 pints. As in... big boy glasses!! Sample glasses will be reserved for just that, samples or flights. You'll still be able to purchase your case (288 ounces) to go. As always in South Carolina when it comes to beer, it's baby steps. We couldn't be more thrilled with this next step, a culmination of 8 years since we founded Pop the Cap SC and our third law to date.

Lots of questions on this. Yes, we are working on a pint law bill. We didn't get much support for this last year unfortunately.  As soon as it is filed and assigned a number, we'll be asking for your support. Stay tuned.
