Some craft breweries are postponing new beer releases or expansions because they need permission from a federal agency that isn’t open. Such breweries tend to offer new seasonal and special brews frequently, and new beer labels need the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau’s approval to be sold across state lines.
