Feature: U.S. craft brewers' trouble fermenting as month-long gov't shutdown drags on

Justin Cox, owner of a craft brewing business, shows a keg label approved by the Treasury Department's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) before government shutdown in Ivy City in northeastern Washington D.C., the United States, Jan. 17, 2019. Located in the community of Ivy City in northeastern Washington D.C., Justin Cox's 12-feet-tall (around 3.66 meters tall) brewery has 14 production tanks, with a strong hop aroma filling the air. His craft brewing business has been running smoothly for over five years until just recently. Without approved labels from the federal government, kegs of apricot-flavored India Pale Ale (IPA) have piled up in his warehouse, unable to be shipped out of the capital for sales. (Xinhua/Liu Jie)
