Plenty of reasons to drink, but it's bad times for brewers

The coronavirus outbreak has given us plenty of reasons to drink. But that doesn't mean that it has been kind to local breweries.We talk about that on this week's episode of the Access Louisville podcast. Reporter Haley Cawthon recently penned a story on how breweries have been hurt by the outbreak, primarily as a result of restaurants, bars and tap houses being closed to encourage social distancing. Those on premise sales are a huge part of the business that breweries do. Some pivoted to retail sales but that can only offset the loss so much.As always, we discuss a couple of different topics on the show. At the top of the program we talk about how our shopping habits have changed. We also discuss the best advice we've heard from local leaders during the outbreak. And — for a little noncoronavirus news — we talk about Papa John's relationship with Shaquille O'Neil during the last year.Time stamps are below:• How shopping habits changed —1:00• How breweries are handling quarantine — 6:28 • Best advice from local business leaders — 18:08• Papa John's relationship with Shaquille O'Neil — 23:51Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.
