The state license is applied for directly with the Department of Revenue, not the city. A manufacturer may sell its own beer to consumers at the brewery for on-sale and off-sale consumption; the federal TTB brewer’s notice comes first and the premises must pass zoning and the Department of Health food license if food is served. Ask the Department whether your taproom plan also needs the city’s malt beverage retail license.
