Did you wake up today in a panic thinking, “Oh god, I have no fucking clue what the domestic tax paid estimate for May is?” Well, panic no more as the Beer Institute always has your back on this one. Check out the chart below. The May 2016 domestic tax paid estimate is 15,470,000 barrels. May 2015 removals were 15,511,000 (revised), for a decrease of 0.3 percent.
