Restaurant owners in the bright light sector are complaining that beer has not increased their receipts to the point anticipated. They are selling much beer, but they are also selling less coffee, tea and other beverages.
Also, customers linger at the tables much longer than they did before 3.2 was legal.
Only the return of cocktails, the restaurant men aver, will bring back prosperity to their business.
