No it doesn’t. From what it sounds like, they had beer they hadn’t sold in a warehouse, and the federal excise tax hadn’t been paid yet, although that can be paid up front, or at the end of the year. Definitely seems like Trump weaponizing federal institutions. Curious what the actual state level violation is, or if there is one.
What state taxes would a brewer in Wisconsin pay? The taxes seems to be aimed at consumers and liquor stores. The brewer just pays the federal excise tax from what it looks like.
