Looks like laws that date back to the days of prohibition are blocking 10 Barrel brewing from opening a Boise, ID Brewpub. Details form the Idaho Statesman:
10 Barrel holds what’s known as a “certificate of approval” — a license that allows the company to bring into Idaho beer brewed at its Bend, Ore., plant. The plan is to sell that beer at the Downtown Boise pub, in addition to some 1,000 barrels brewed at the Boise location.
And that’s the problem. Idaho law doesn’t allow the company to sell the beer it brings in from Oregon at its own pub.
That’s because no company that holds a certificate of approval can sell alcohol at a retail establishment.
