Summary
Collaborative distilling. Allows the holder of an artisan distiller's permit (artisan distiller) to: (1) manufacture liquor, including blending liquor sourced from another licensed manufacturer with liquor the artisan distiller manufactures; and (2) redistill, age, or bottle liquor, including liquor sourced from another licensed manufacturer; in accordance with certain provisions. Allows an artisan distiller to manufacture liquor for another artisan distiller if certain conditions are met. Allows an artisan distiller to blend or sell liquor from another licensed manufacturer as liquor that the artisan distiller manufactures if the artisan distiller's aggregate annual sales, in gallons, is made up of not less than 70% of liquor that was fermented and distilled from raw materials by the artisan distiller at the licensed premises of the artisan distiller. Specifies that brandy or liquor transferred in bond counts, for the calendar year in which the transfer occurs, toward the gallonage limit for the permit holder that receives the liquor or brandy transferred in bond. Provides that a transfer in bond of liquor or brandy that occurred before July 1, 2025, between the holder of an artisan distiller's permit, a farm winery brandy distiller's permit, or a distiller's permit: (1) is not subject to a provision that restricts the amount of sourced liquor that an artisan distiller may sell; and (2) does not, for purposes of that provision, count toward the amount of sourced liquor that an artisan distiller may sell.
