THC-Infused Beverages Face Federal Ban
Update: 2025-11-28
Description
Craft breweries like Indeed Brewing in Minneapolis are facing a significant threat to their THC-infused seltzer business due to a new federal provision banning these intoxicating hemp-derived beverages. This ban, set to take effect in November 2026, has sent the hemp industry into a scramble to save itself. The loophole in the 2018 farm bill, which legalized industrial hemp cultivation, allowed products like seltzers and snacks to contain enough THC to be intoxicating while still meeting the hemp classification. Now, the industry is pushing for regulation rather than outright prohibition, arguing that theres time to implement stricter rules before the ban takes effect.
