under current legislation in Alberta it is impossible to start a craft distillery. production minimums have to be on par with large commercial distilleries of the likes of Segrams. Licencing currently is not condusive to a small volume distillery.

However after spending many hours discussing the issue at the provincial and federal Level with involved licencing agencies (Alberta Liquor and Gaming Commission and Canada Revenue Agency) a rumor appeared out of nowhere, apparently the ALGC is willing to entertain applications that do not meet minimum production quantities.

The source of this rumor, hinted that this may be an exploration into changing licencing policy, if some one can step up and show how a microdistillery should be done, then it may just become the model for law. Very similar to how it was done in B.C.

but this is all just Rumor.
