Has anybody hear experiences on selling homebrewed beer to restaurants? I’ve been making my own beer for the past 15 years or so but never even thought that I could actually make business out of it. I currently live in Northern Europe and apparently here it’s totally normal for especially small restaurants to buy some. A friend of mine told me that a restaurant Cantina http://cantina.nu
(which according to the web page looks a totally decent place…) could be even 3 euros (around 4 bucks) for a bottle which sounds totally amazing for me…
I haven’t, but I believe that could get into some choppy water with health codes here in the U.S. I doubt any restaurant would buy from a homebrewer with the flooded market of actual craft breweries these days.
It’s worth a shot if someone has the right connections, but I don’t know if there’s any red tape or how much
Illegal in the USA. Not sure about other countries, but you should certainly educate yourself well on all the codes and regulations in your area before committing or selling anything.
Definately illegal in Finland, and I can’t imagine it is legal anywhere else in the EU, though I suspect it isn’t enforced to the same level everywhere. Don’t do it unless you have all required licences and permits in place. Most countries in N. Europe take public health and food supply safety very seriously.
Apparently the poster is a troll. Has a link to a restaurant in Sweden in his post, and there is NO WAY someone in Sweden (which has the strictest alcohol laws in Europe) would ask such a question.
