| The health inspector arrived to shut down the establishment at 11am on Super Bowl Sunday, according to Bart Avery, the owner of Bravery Brewery in Lancaster, California, preventing the local craft brewery from making money on one of the most profitable days of the year – because it did not have a food truck. | The health inspector arrived to shut down the establishment at 11am on Super Bowl Sunday, according to Bart Avery, the owner of Bravery Brewery in Lancaster, California, preventing the local craft brewery from making money on one of the most profitable days of the year – because it did not have a food truck. |
| The inspector allegedly told Avery that according to Covid-19 restrictions, his business could not remain open without a food truck, and ordered the establishment to close – though the owner later found her claim to be incorrect. Since the brewery was only pouring draught beer to go, they did not need a food truck to operate. | The inspector allegedly told Avery that according to Covid-19 restrictions, his business could not remain open without a food truck, and ordered the establishment to close – though the owner later found her claim to be incorrect.

| Avery told Fox News on Monday that his business has been “decimated financially and emotionally” during the pandemic and by the forced closure – but it made matters worse when he reviewed footage from a camera inside the premises and was shocked to discover that the inspector had performed a happy jig in the brewery just after issuing the order to shut it down. | Avery told Fox News on Monday that his business has been “decimated financially and emotionally” during the pandemic and by the forced closure – but it made matters worse when he reviewed footage from a camera inside the premises and was shocked to discover that the inspector had performed a happy jig in the brewery just after issuing the order to shut it down. |

| “These government bureaucrats will celebrate your bankruptcy. They will laugh at us as we struggle to feed our kids. They get a paycheck regardless. Their lust for control [knows] no bounds,” wrote UFC fighter Tim Kennedy.
