Can raising Mississippi's beer ABW limit (5%) help small businesses?

Look at what it's done for a few Alabama businesses since they raised their limit from 6% to 13.9% maximum Alcohol By Volume content of beer.

At the Southside bar J. Clyde, business is up 50 percent since the newly legal beers arrived, while customers at Western Supermarket in Mountain Brook are snapping them up so fast that the shelves barely stay stocked .... "When we would go out and start restocking shelves, sometimes it never got back on the shelves. Customers would come up and buy it off the delivery cart,"

And at Birmingham's Vulcan Beverage, beer lovers stood in a line that extended out the door to the neighboring building last week




Help Mississippi raise their limit (currently at 5% Alcohol By Weight and the only state in the U.S. with such a low limit) by joining Raise Your Pints.
