Montana Looks to Raise Small Brewery Barrelage Cap

Share Post

House Bill 326 increases the number of barrels allowed to be produced by a small brewery from 10,000 to 60,000, allows a licensed brewer that manufactures less than 60,000 barrels of beer per year to obtain a retail on-premise all-beverage license or a retail on-premise beer license, and allows a retail on-premise all-beverage license holder or a retail on-premise beer license holder to obtain a brewer’s license. Breweries with annual nationwide production between 10,000 and 60,000 barrels would be limited to 500 barrels annually for on-premise consumption, however those with annual nationwide production between 100 and 10,000 barrels would not be subject to this limitation.
