Linda in NE Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 An article in my local paper made me think of you all. Are there any vigilantes campaigning in your area against Mike's and other similar drinks, or do I have the corner on the market out here in the heartland of America? http://www.journalstar.com/articles/2004/12/08/nebraska/doc41b68155b8eed410264231.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trivium Academy Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 What do they classify wine coolers? If Mike's, Zima, Smirnoff are 'malt' beverages, doesn't that qualify them as beer? It seems it's more about raising the taxes on something that is selling than it is about anything else. Look at those profits...we need to do something about this! :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenn- Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Since that article is from 2004, I would be very surprised to not find the conclusion somewhere online. I know the items in question are all sold in the beer section of the grocery stores here so they must be considered beer here because only wine and beer are allowed to be sold outside of package stores.
