Gov. Cuomo has introduced legislation that would make NY farm brewers & wineries exempt from tax filing requirements. The goal is to promote the growth of craft breweries and hopefully increase demand for local beer as well.
ALBANY, N.Y. — Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today proposed legislation to create a "Farm Brewery" license that will promote the growth of New York State's craft breweries.
The new license would allow craft brewers that use products grown in New York State to operate in a similar fashion to the state's wineries, leading to increased demand for locally grown farm products as well as expanded economic development and tourism.
The Governor also proposed legislation to exempt Farm Wineries and Distilleries from a costly and burdensome tax filing requirement.
