Daniel Stroud (left) and Del Stephens (right) opened Jarfly Brewing Co. in 2016. Even before that, efforts had started to allow microbreweries like Jarfly to self-distribute their own products. Stroud supports a bill currently making its way through Frankfort that would do just that. File
Kentuckyâs microbreweries â like Jarfly Brewing Co. here in Somerset â are raising a toast to 2021âs Senate Bill 15.
The glass is only half-full though, as the legislation has yet to pass.Â
The bipartisan bill making its way through the state legislature would allow a microbrewer to sell and deliver up to 2,500 barrels of product to any retail licensee and to require a microbrewer to report self-distribution to the distributor.
