Legal Updates Colorado SB 26-114: Colorado’s New Liquor Permit That Gives Spirits Manufacturers Distillery Pub-Style Functionality
Under the new changes to C.R.S. § 44-3-402, Colorado distillers will be able to serve and sell beer, wine, other distillers’ spirits, and beers and wines by the drink for on-premises consumption at the distiller’s manufacturing facility and at the manufacturer’s approved sales room. In practical effect, the bill grafts much of the retail functionality of a Colorado Distillery Pub onto a manufacturer’s license, while letting the producer keep all the production and distribution rights a distillery pub does not have.
