Beer sales are way down right now, he said on Friday during an interview with FOX Business Stuart Varney. Theyre in the toilet. And craft beer is down, premium beer is down. And we blame a lot of it on cannabis. Thats largely because users of cannabis -- eight states, and Washington D.C., have legalized recreational marijuana, and 29 have legalized medicinal usage -- stay at home, sit on their couches and opt to not go to bars, Taffer said. Craft beer has lost its luster, he said. The small boutique breweries have lost their luster. And the beer category is in big trouble. According to a report from Business Insider Opens a New Window. , millennials and members of Generation Z are responsible for dragging down beer sales. A report from Berenberg Research found that members of Generation Z preferred drinks like wine, vodka and gin to beer. The solution? According to Taffer, it could be cannabis-licensed bars, which would allow patrons to smoke or ingest marijuana in places that also have obtained liquor licenses. I would [welcome it, he said. Because its eroding my industry. So either I have to accept the erosion, or participate in that erosion. Thats my choice. I have to move with the marketplace.

How can you compare drinking on the weekend to smoking every (other) day? If we are going to compare on an honest level, people who drink daily vs. people who smoke daily should be examined. I'd bet money on the daily drinkers being the more useless and dangerous ones, tbh.
