Who needs a brewery registration and manufacturer licenses in Tennessee?
Issued by Tennessee Department of Revenue; Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission for high gravity beer; Tennessee Department of Agriculture, at step 5 of 6 in the opening sequence: alcohol permits.
The federal TTB brewer’s notice comes first. Beer tax is reported to the Department of Revenue monthly, and the Commission inspects a high gravity brewer’s premises before licensing. Self-distribution and taproom sales follow the beer board permit and the manufacturer’s privileges in Title 57.
