"Norfolk Council Approves Controversial Military-Themed Brewery Despite Opposition"

Norfolk City Council has approved a conditional use permit for Armed Forces Brewing Company, a military-themed brewery, to operate a taproom and sell beer in Norfolk. The decision comes after months of pushback from the local community, who criticized the company's messaging as divisive and bigoted. Despite concerns about the brewery's operations and messaging, council members framed the vote as a land use issue and emphasized that brewing by right is not subject to debate. The lone dissenting vote cited concerns about the increase in intensity of the business and recent violations. The brewery plans to open in January.

Revocation of Minocqua Brewing Company's Operating Permit

The Minocqua Brewing Company in Wisconsin had its administrative review permit revoked, preventing it from operating. Owner Kirk Bangstad filed a temporary restraining order to halt the hearing, but the county proceeded with the decision. Bangstad plans to continue operating despite the revocation. The meeting was originally scheduled to discuss a conditional use permit for expansion, but instead focused on the underlying permit allowing the brewery to operate. The committee cited violations of the terms of the administrative review permit as the reason for the revocation. The decision on the conditional use permit has been postponed until a later hearing.
