“We listened to our consumers and we’re excited to be launching the Old Milwaukee American Pin – up Series. The new look embraces the heritage of the brand while paying respect to the strong women that made pin – up culture in America something to be proud of,” said Heather Rodman, Brand Manager at Old Milwaukee. “Our fans can expect the same great – tasting, accessible Old Mil, Old Mil Light, and Old Mil N.A but with a fresh new look, available at retailers nationwide beginning in April 2017.”

Indiana law prohibits sales of cold beer at gas stations. But Jay Ricker, own of a C-store chain,thought he found a loophole: He converted two to full-fledged restaurants with gas stations.  Restaurants can sell cold beer for takeout.
He ran the idea past the state Alcohol & Tobacco Commission, and was told the agency didn’t have a problem with it.
Then Indiana lawmakers got wind of it, and are trying to plug the loophole, by, among other things changing the definition of a restaurant. But that would have imperiled legitimate restaurants. So a House committee voted 9-4 to freeze those permits, while also grandfathering Ricker’s two restaurant locations, and to create a commission to study reform of Indiana’s liquor laws.
