The most common reason is probably usage of links. If you have a link from the plump helmet stockpile you have to have one to the barrel stockpile as well, as linking stockpiles means every input has to come from a linked stockpile.

Another possibility is a blocked path so it's not possible to get from the still to the barrel stockpile (channeling out stairs/ramps is a common cause).

I believe workshop burrows can cause problems as well, but I've never used those.

Thank you PatrikLundell
Ok, about links I think its not that,
I don't use this kind of thing too much yet
And I should ahah
The blocked path? I don't think so, because sometimes I can restart production to brew
But burrow, it can be that because the room with cook / butcher / still / fish workshop is a burrow zone in case of attack (with provisions!)
So I will try to put some still another place
Thank you ;)
