US Bar Offering Free Beer on Trump's Death Loses Alcohol License

Minocqua Brewing Company, a bar in Wisconsin, is facing the loss of its alcohol license on August 4. The revocation is due to the company transporting canned beer from Illinois into Wisconsin without the necessary permits. The establishment, which has two locations in the state, came under scrutiny following a controversial Facebook post on January 22. In the post, the company suggested it would offer 'free beer all day' on the day of Donald Trump's death, although the former president was not explicitly named. Following a reported assassination attempt on Trump during the White House Correspondents' Dinner in April, the brewery commented, 'Well, we almost got the #freebeersday.' The owner of Minocqua Brewing Company, left-wing activist Kirk Bangstad, has vowed to fight the license revocation. He stated, 'They will have to drag me out of my bars before I stop selling beer to thirsty progressives who come to visit us.' Bangstad has also initiated a fundraising effort to cover the legal costs associated with the license revocation.
