distillery permits in Alabama
#27
of 52 states for distilleries
358
all permits in Alabama
A Distilled Spirits Plant (DSP) permit authorizes producing, bottling, or warehousing spirits. DSP holders operate under a federal bond covering excise tax on every proof gallon, a heavier compliance load than other classes, which is why distilleries are the smallest of the four groups (5,590 nationwide).
Note: this business's name suggests a brewery operation, but its TTB record on file classifies this specific permit as a Distillery -- a business can legally hold more than one permit class (for example, a winery producing brandy to fortify wine needs a separate Distilled Spirits Plant permit). This page reflects the permit class TTB assigned to permit number AL-S-20068 specifically, which may not be the business's primary product line.
