Deep Ellum Calls Out “Scotch & Sausage” Bar For Pay-To-Play Tactics

From Deep Ellum:

Dallas, we have a problem. Earlier today, one of our sales reps visited the newly opened Scotch & Sausage. We were all really excited for their opening, and the possibility they'd carry our beer, but today we got hit with, "want your beer on tap? then pay us $120 per week or give us half price beer." This is called pay-to-play, and although it happens all too often, it is illegal - not to mention, unethical. I've never understood why a retailer would cheapen itself to the highest bidder rather than giving customers what they want? Needless to say, you won't be seeing us on the taps at Scotch & Sausage. It's unfortunate, as we were all very excited for this one, but our standards (and the law) will win every time. Cheers & beers.
