Who needs a farmer brewery license, or pub brewery license in Massachusetts?
Issued by Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission (ABCC); the local licensing authority for the pouring permit, at step 5 of 6 in the opening sequence: alcohol permits.
A taproom that brews and sells its own beer by the glass and to go is a farmer brewery with a pouring permit; a brewpub that is first a restaurant is a pub brewery. A business cannot hold both. The federal TTB brewer’s notice comes first, the ABCC licenses the manufacturing, and the town approves the premises and the pouring.
