Even if they somehow can use the cola label that would only be 1 step of several needed to obtain a license which can take 6-12 months.
Step #8: Apply for Your Brewer’s Notice with the TTB
Perhaps the most important – and most time consuming – step along the path to owning and operating your own brewery is the process by which you obtain a license for the brewery from the Alcohol and Tobacco Trade and Tax Bureau (“TTB”). TTB collects Federal excise taxes on alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and ammunition and assures compliance with Federal tobacco permitting and alcohol permitting, labeling, and marketing requirements to protect consumers.
If you intend to make beer for other than family or personal use, TTB must approve your operations, recipes, beer labels and the like. You have to send in a Brewer’s Notice and a Brewer’s Bond and TTB must approve your operations before you begin to make beer. TTB may initiate an on-site inspection of the proposed premises and operations prior to the issuance of your Brewer’s Notice. Background checks on directors, officers and significant owners are also required. This process typically takes 6-12 months to complete.
Step #9: Apply for Applicable State and Local Licenses
Besides TTB approval, a new brewery will need to apply for a state wholesaler’s license as well as any licenses required by the municipality in which the brewery will operate. An example of the latter is a taproom license. In Minnesota, if the brewery intends to construct and operate a taproom where patrons can purchase pints of beer onsite at the brewery, the taproom license must be issued through the municipality, not the State of Minnesota.
