Lawmakers joined Arizona Governor Doug Ducey for a beer Tuesday night after he signed Sen. Kelli Ward’s S.B. 1030, the Arizona Beer Bill, a measure to protect and grow the craft brewing industry and create jobs in Arizona.
Legislators gathered at the Four Peaks Brewery for the event.
Arizona’s craft beer industry is a multi-million dollar industry supporting more than 20,000 jobs and $600 million in wages, and has contributed more than $1.2 billion to the state economy.
