Beer container size restriction (SB294) has passed the House and Senate. All it needs now is the governor's signature. I've emailed and called (and so are a lot of other folks who follow our grass-roots legislative group - Free the Hops.

A good friend of mine, beer afficianado (and reporter for the Birmingham News) reported via Twitter that a spokesperson for Governor Robert Bentley's office has announced that he has signed the Gourmet Bottle Bill (SB294) repealling the container size restriction on beer for the state. Some cities and counties have allowed sales of beers above 16oz., but this will allow sales of 22oz., 750ml, etc. statewide.
