Trump's Aluminum Tariffs Leave 40 Ohio Craft Brewers With The Tab 20,000 craft beer industry jobs expected to be lost this year Among those other industries, those in business of brewing craft beer have also raised concerns of aluminum tariffs forcing them to raise prices. "The aluminum tariff alone could cost the industry $347.7 million and result in the loss of more than 20,000 jobs nationwide,” argued Jim McGreevy, the president of the Washington, D.C.-based Beer Institute, in a previous statement to Fox News. |

Doesn't seem to be having much of an effect on the trading price of aluminum...
https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/aluminum I would have expected the trading price to be affected as well. |

I remember about 10 or 11 years ago when crude was super high, some buddies of mine were all pretty happy about it. I don't care too much for canned beer. It sucks if people are losing their jobs over this though. Makes me think the Trump administration is fucking with these tariffs just to control the market and turning some profits with investments. What do you think? Certainly wouldn't surprise me. |

So the price of rent, credit, cars, gas, food, beer, milk, prescription drugs & soda have all gone up higher than the 2% wage increase under Trump. Inflation. Good for big industry bad for the little guy. Commodity prices likely to rise further in 2018: World Bank |
Decimated? How many breweries have closed?

Read the 4 articles I posted links to and educate yourself about what's happening to your industry. Due to big business beer company lobbying Trump's FDA is forcing all small craft beers to have "nutritional labelling". Another huge expense for small craft beer companies.

who drinks craft beers out of cans?? I gave up beer and switched to vodka and stuff 4 years ago but when I drank beer I only bought bottles cause beer in cans didn't taste as good..
No, I'm not a trump supporter just pointing out that you would think more people would just drink bottles if the price of cans was going up. Tariffs suck! |

Let there be no mistake, a lot of craft breweries are transitioning to cans but no one is closing because of the aluminum, much less being decimated. https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/...2/19789999.jpg |

Are there not aluminum and "STEEL" tarrifs? Just for the record though... some kegs are made out of aluminum but most are stainless steel. |

Lets face it none of this affects Chump. Unless the cost of his happy meal goes up, he could care less.
