Frederick County, Md., is a craft beverage industry leader in the state of Maryland and the Frederick County Council recently approved a bill that would help distilleries, breweries, and wineries in the county.
The Frederick County Council approved the amended bill for farm distilleries and tasting rooms, and limited farm brewery, distillery, and winery tasting rooms on Tuesday.
“This is an opportunity for existing farmers and new farmers to preserve the land, maybe change something what they are doing on their existing farm,” said Tom Barse, Owner of Milkhouse Brewery at Stillpoint Farm, who supported the bill.
