The state’s new law requiring de posits on all beverage containers is boosting beer prices, sending bor der residents into neighboring states where they can save nearly $6 a case in some instances. The loss of business is com pounded by the loss to the state of 46 cents a case in excise taxes. Add ing to the problem is lax enforce ment of laws banning importation of beer into Michigan without state approval. Beer brewers say they’ve been forced to raise prices to cover the cost of new containers required under the law, plus the machinery and workers required to clean the empty deposit bottles. -MV" V'MW. — Distributors say they also must hike prices to cover the added cost of picking up and storing the empty containers.
