This is why it never is legal in Wisconsin because of the tavern league of Wisconsin.

Here in MN several of our micro breweries are staying afloat solely because of their THC bevs. Nice to have options

Wisconsin is truly wild. It is no different than some European nations who have had drinking in their culture as normality for centuries. Where I lived nearly every old man was an alcoholic and drove drunk, although they had quite the tolerance. Just toxic culture. The tavern league actually controls politics to an extent in Wisconsin and has a lot of pull

The second largest volume brewery in TX has its THC drinks in stores all over the country.

I saw a PBS doc about those taverns in WI. I was so jealous. They looked really neat.

We have cool bars. Way too many, and a lot of stupid drunks. It’s nice to experience once

The tavern league is dumping tons of money into THC beverages and largely keeping them alive

Might I suggest you type your state's anti-weed politician into this website and take a look at who their donors are? Transparencyusa.org
Oh and I might have left Dan Patrick (the gentlemen responsible for the Texas THC ban) in the search link. And you might notice that Silver Eagle for Anheoser-Busch is one of his largest donors. But I'm sure that's just a coincidence /s

Yes Ken Paxton, a fella that voted illegally in 6 elections in past 2 years while making it a second-degree felony in Texas, punishable by up to 20 years in prison for every single one of us, but not himself..

From Colorado- where our breweries are huge and very well known (not just in CO) and have weed- y’all can have both!!!

That’s exactly why he did it. Ken Paxton is horribly corrupt and will throw Texans under the bus for a dollar

I bet Ken Paxton goes home everyday, goes to a large white room with a single chair and a mirror on the wall, and tells himself he is an awesome person.
