ST. PAUL, Minn. - It is now legal for home brewers in Minnesota to sell their beverages and concoctions to the public, as long as they are brewed in the basement of a building. Gov. Tim Pawlenty signed the "basement brewing" bill Thursday. Early laws allowed home brewing for personal use, but prohibited people from selling their drinks. Many had concerns about moisture and mildew often found in basements.
Under the new law, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture will review spaces and issue permits to those that pass muster.
This law covers the brewing of everything from beer to drink syrups, bitters, kombucha and other carbonated drinks. Some start-up breweries in Minnesota got their start with home brewing. Fulton Beer started in a southwest Minneapolis basement in 2007, eventually moving into a garage. The young brewers started selling their beer to the public in 2009, officially establishing Fulton Beer, which is brewed using the facilities of Sand Creek Brewery in Black River Falls, Wisconsin. We need to write to Wisconsin's Gov., and get this passed as well. It would be awesome to get this passed for Wine too! -Matt |
