Bill Overview

Distilleries can sell drinks for on-site use
Licensed Tennessee distilleries can sell alcoholic drinks to people of legal drinking age for consumption on their premises. Consumption is allowed only where federal law permits it, outside the distillery’s bonded premises. Distilled spirits sold this way must be made there or lawfully obtained under Tennessee’s distillery licensing law. The existing federal-law and other statutory conditions still apply. This authority took effect when the act became law.
Manufacturers gain sales options with limits
Licensed Tennessee alcohol manufacturers can sell products made on their licensed premises and certain imports bottled in Mexico. For those imports, manufacturers must own the intellectual property rights. Imports must meet U.S. import rules and Mexican government and Consejo Regulador del Tequila standards. Those standards must designate the product as distinctive and require it to be made in Mexico. Purchases are capped at five gallons or one-sixth of a barrel per person per visit. Sales hours are 8:00 a.m.–11:00 p.m. Monday–Saturday and 10:00 a.m.–11:00 p.m. Sunday. Manufacturers can offer free or paid samples to people of legal drinking age, including during public tours. Sampled products must be made or distilled there, or imported and registered for distribution and sale in Tennessee. Samples can be offered anywhere on the manufacturing premises that federal law allows visitors to access. Manufacturers must tell the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission where samples are offered. These rules took effect when the act became law.
