Why Can’t You Just Ship Beer Anywhere?

When prohibition ended in 1933, the federal government gave States the power to decide their own alcohol laws.

Some State lawmakers decided to open all the taps while others were much more strict…

…so in 1933, since nobody expected the creation of the International Highway System and the Internet, shipping beer from out of State didn’t seem plausible.

As time went on however and infrastructure improved, many States recognized that out-of-state shipments of beer gave them a ton of extra tax money.

…But the states that still clung to the ways of the early 30’s by enforcing outdated alcohol laws didn’t get the memo and are to this day, are struggling to catch up with the majority (some States view their strict laws as a source of pride and identity).
