We are committed to facilitating voluntary compliance through education and outreach.

With fiscal year 2025 on the horizon, we are planning our outreach activities for the coming year.

We ask that you contact us at least 90 days before your event.

Can a Brewery Receive Bulk Cider in Bond for Their Tap Room?
Breweries frequently ask us whether they may receive bulk cider for use in their tap room. Cider products containing between 0.5% and 24% alcohol by volume are regulated by TTB as wine under federal regulations, so the question is whether bulk wine may be received in bond at a brewery premises.
No, a proprietor of a bonded wine premises may not transfer, and a brewery may not receive, bulk wine to a brewery premises. Federal law and TTB regulations restrict the use of a brewery to specific purposes and operations and receiving bulk wine is not listed among the authorized operations. See FAQ W27 and also 26 U.S.C. § 5411 and 27 CFR § 25.23. However, a brewery may receive tax-paid wine in kegs or other allowable standards of fill into a tax-paid on-premises retail establishment.
