Last week, we shared with you a statement from Leigh Maida regarding the PLCB raiding her and her husband Brendan Hartranft's three bars — Local 44, Memphis Taproom and Resurrection Ale House — over beers "not registered" with the state governmental body. (Don "Joe Sixpack" Russell and Bob Warner delve deeper into the issue with this informative Daily News piece published today.) Now comes word that Cherry Hill brewery Flying Fish, which planned on debuting its new Exit 16 Double IPA at McGillin's about an hour from right now (we featured it in the latest What's Cooking), has decided to postpone the launch, as the beer is brand-new and the paperwork required to register it with the Commonwealth has hit an unavoidable snag. We'll update once Flying Fish announces a new release date.
