I guess. Just look at the shilling video game fiasco.
In RI if you own a brewery, under no circumstances are you allowed to sell direct to the public, restaurants or liqueur stores... You have to sell through a distributor. The distributors control the flow and basically make it so you have little control over who orders your beer for resale.

In mass or VT, you could start up a little farm brewery and sell direct ... That's why you see all these great little breweries with amazing beer. They are free... No distributor.. And higher profit margins as a result.
