"Another location in the 2Bears Tavern Group referenced by co-owner Mark Robertson, who cautioned that if the proposed wholesale excise tax is passed through to customers it will depress spending and tips and has already led the group to reduce staff: “Less customers who do come in are spending less. They’re trading down from the local craft beer that by nature cost more for the Miller Lite. They’re making choices to tip our employees less,” Robertson says, and, “What used to be able to support a larger staff, we’ve had to reduce our staff count by 15 percent in the last four months to compensate for these costs that we’re getting hit with. It simply doesn’t work.”" - Leigh Giangreco
