The AJC's Aaron Gould Sheinin was the first to report that Georgia's craft beer and liquor industries have reached an agreement with the state's wholesalers that will end a contentious battle over how these small businesses operate.
The deal, according to the Georgia Beer Wholesalers Association, means the Department of Revenue will issue new rules that will:
- Allow brewers again to sell brewery tours at variable prices based on the kind of beer offered.
- Allow special events at breweries and distilleries.
- Let brewers, distilleries and wholesalers use social media to alert the public about where to buy their products or advertise special events.
- Allow third parties to sell tour tickets.
- Let breweries and distilleries sell food on site.
