Erik Owens Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 BY AUSTIN SCHICK KENTUCKY PUBLISHED 5:00 AM ET AUG. 01, 2024 https://spectrumnews1.com/ky/louisville/news/2024/07/31/senate-bill-50-impacts# WINCHESTER, Ky. — A recently enacted law gives more freedom to craft distillers in Kentucky. Senate Bill 50 allows craft distillers to self-distribute up to 5,000 gallons of product a year. It’s not a far drive from Regeneration Distilling to Bill’s Liquor in Winchester, but it was a milestone one for Ben Pasley. “It was so cool to strap it down with the first four cases and then drive about four or five miles down to Bill’s Liquor over on 627 here in Winchester,” Pasley said. Prior to July 15, the drive wouldn’t have been legal. Distillers would have to get their products into stores and bars with distributors. For smaller distilleries, it was a battle with the big names of bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
