3-11-14 beer commission

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — State brewers are behind legislation that would create a Wisconsin Beer Commission to market and promote their product.  Rep. Gary Tauchen has offered a bill that would set up a commission with four members representing small brewers or brewpubs, one member for large brewers, one for wholesalers and a chairperson.   Tauchen says he wants to make Wisconsin the "Napa Valley of craft brewing."  The Brewers Association says Wisconsin ranks 11th in the nation for the number of breweries per capita.
