Following on the request for waiver of the prior notification and waiting period requirements associated with the voluntary destruction of unmerchantable beer in the marketplace which was subsequently granted through June 2020, the Brewers Association has submitted a request that the Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) extend the waiver until at least September 1 to account for the large volume of beer expected to go out-of-code over the next several months due to continued closures, and restricted re-openings, of on-premise establishments.
