Sun King Puts New Fishers Brewery On Hold

From IBJ:

Legislation pending in the Indiana General Assembly involving barrel limits for the state’s small breweries has caused Sun King owners to pause plans for building the $8.8 million brewery and tasting room.

Two bills working through the Legislature would increase from 30,000 to 90,000 the maximum number of barrels of beer a small brewery can manufacture in a year for sale within Indiana. Current law requires any beer produced beyond 30,000 barrels to be distributed out of state. One barrel is equal to two 15.5-gallon kegs.
