N.H. House Votes Against Beer Tax Hike  New Hampshire beer
drinkers won't have to dig deeper into their pockets for a glass
of their favorite brew. The New Hampshire House voted 308-35
Wednesday against raising the beer tax. The House killed a bill
that raised the tax a dime to 40 cents per gallon. The 30-cent
tax is paid at the wholesale level. (Bloomberg BusinessWeek)
