Ted Zeller in the News: Brewers Get a Reprieve With Excise Tax Extension

Theodore J. Zeller III, Esquire, a Member of Norris McLaughlin, P.A., and Chair of its Liquor Law, Licensing, Manufacturing, and Distribution Practice Group, was quoted in the Lehigh Valley Business article, “Brewers get a reprieve with excise tax extension.”

The article addresses the extension of the excise tax on brewing, avoiding a massive tax hike on beer in 2020, while Ted, as general counsel for the Brewers of Pennsylvania, discusses the reaction of brewers and planning for a potential tax hike, stating that “[t]here’s always the chance Congress may not act in time to extend the current rate again.”
