Who needs a brewer or brewpub license in Georgia?

Issued by Georgia Department of Revenue, Alcohol and Tobacco Division, at step 5 of 6 in the opening sequence: alcohol permits.

1 of the 20 kinds of business in Georgia

A production brewery with a taproom holds a brewer license and may sell up to 3,000 barrels a year to visitors for drinking there or to take home. A brewpub (beer brewed inside a restaurant) needs the consumption on premises license first, then the brewpub license and bond, and sells only on its own premises. Federal TTB brewer’s notice comes before either.
