The Petition
Shifting Montana brewery tap room serving hours to noon-10pm makes sense because it:
- Shifts, but does not increase, tap room serving hours
- Meets the expectations of Montanans and the visiting public and tourists
- Provides for growth in the use of Montana grown agricultural products
- Creates jobs at Montana breweries
- Enables reinvestment in brewing capacity at Montana breweries
- Lifts unneeded restrictions that inhibit industry growth
- Supports free enterprise concepts in the marketplace
- Better fits with many Montana worker's schedules, who work past 7 or 8pm
- Aligns better with other regional state's laws, which have no hours restrictions
- Helps Montana small businesses grow jobs and make investments
- Supports a viable, growing, and responsible industry in the state
- Aligns with winery laws, which have no serving hours restrictions
