ChrisJones 7,975 Posted May 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Same this end. Utah is predominantly mormon, and mormons are supposed to be teetotal. They have a huge representation in government and the laws reflect that. You can buy beer in supermarkets and licenced stores but it's only 4% by volume. Anything above that has to be sold in a state-run liquor store. Mon-Sat 11-7. Closed Sunday's and holidays. Prices vary from reasonable to extortionate but it depends on what you're after. Considering it's against their Words Of Wisdom the department of alcoholic beverage control is the only government establishment that makes a profit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do the farmer's need a license to sell it to you and if they do will it effect the price with the new law. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it will come in, in England, but the proper cider makers seem to get a lot of exemptions because it's a bit of a Somerset tradition, i would imaging licences would depend on quantity brewed and how you sell it, some people just put a board up outside the farm and others brew in bigger batch,s and supply local pubs, in the millennium year they were given millions of pounds in grants to replant the apple trees as it was a dying thing so I doubt they will pull the rug out and if shit comes to shove it's very easy to make it yourself as it is just apples, no yeast,no sugar and no chemicals, squeeze out the juice and leave it in a barrel job done, sadly I sold all my kit a couple of years back but it's dead easy to start up if needed in the future 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
