(HR) Upslope Brewing Company lead brewer Yazan Karadsheh checks the clarity and color of the beer that he took out of the mash tank. A bill to allow grocery stores to sell full strength beer would affect small businesses throughout Colorado in a number of different ways. The state's 100+ brewers have come out against the legislation, saying it would keep them from getting shelf space and drive their best customers (independent liquor stores) out of business. Upslope Brewing, based in Boulder, opened just four months ago, and says that the small operation would not have gotten off the ground if this bill was already in place. Helen H.
