I agree with what you're saying, but even without a bunch of riders there are bills that become laws and parts of those laws eventually get struck down by the court system through litigation/challenges.

I don't know enough about this provision, but if a large enough distillery (of which I know many who have deep pockets) decides to fight the charge on behalf of other smaller distilleries, it could get struck down.

A large distillery might be happy that small competitors suffer death by regulation and thus do nothing to oppose this regulatory action.
