Lawsuits and taxes and beer laws, oh my!2023 has been a hell of a year for craft beer.  Breweries continue to close their doors or move in together.  Like when you had to go back to your parents' house after college to save some money.  Shit happens and you gotta do what you gotta do.Bevana Drama and Trouble at Tree HouseCraft beer is no stranger to lawsuits but there are a couple heavy hitters lately.  You've heard us talk about Bevana several times.  Some of our friends breweries have partnered with them.  Well, things are not going well at Bevana.  One brewery claims money owed to them by Bevana forced them to close and file bankruptcy and others say monies are owed and promises have not been delivered on.  There's a lot to this one and it's just getting started so we'll keep our eyes open for more.  Also, a minority shareholder of Tree House brewing claims majority stakeholders paid themselves excessive salaries and amassed real estate holding while no paying proceeds to others.
