S 365 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Allows brewery supply stores to sell New York state labelled beer for off-premises consumption

This bill allows brewery supply stores (retailers selling homebrewing equipment and ingredients) to sell New York state-labeled beer for customers to take away. It amends liquor laws to permit these stores to hold licenses for off-premises beer sales, but only for beer produced in New York and bearing state labels. The change specifically expands the types of licensed locations (adding brewery supply stores to grocery/drug stores) while restricting sales to only New York-produced beer. This directly affects New York brewery supply stores seeking to sell beer for takeout, not homebrewers or other retailers.
