MEMORANDUM

TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Matt Horton, Community Development Intern
SUBJECT: Planning Case 12-015 - Micro-brewery,Micro-distillery, and Taproom
Concept Review Discussion
Requested Action
Review the concept proposal and provide feedback and direction to Staff.
Background
In 2011, the State Legislature amended State Law to allow taprooms in microbreweries in
Minnesota. This bill was commonly referred to as the "Surly Bill", and was first proposed by the
owner of Surly Brewery. The law allows microbreweries that produce fewer than 250,000
barrels of beer a year to have a taproom where they can sell beer which is brewed on site. The
law also allows sampling of beer which is produced on site.
State law also allows microbreweries which produce fewer than 3,500 barrels of beer a year to
provide off-sale sales of 64 ounce "Growlers" and 750 milliliter bottles; however, off-sale sales
of beer by the bottle, case, or keg is not permitted by State law.
This law applies to microbreweries but not micro distilleries (manufacturers of spirits).
Distilleries are allowed by State Statute, but cannot provide on-sale, off-sale, sales of their
products at the location in which the spirits are produced.
Municipal ordinances may be more restrictive than State law in terms of the sale of alcohol.

Discussion
Currently, Arden Hills' Zoning Code allows breweries and distilleries, as well as distributors of
alcohol, in zoning districts that allow manufacturing and processing.
The City has received a proposal from Bent Brewstillery to open a brewery and distillery in a
2,500 square foot bay in the B-4 Zoning District at 1160 Red Fox Road. Bent Brewstillery
would also like to include a taproom for the consumption of on-sale beer brewed on site, as well
as off-sale sales of growlers and 750 ml. bottles. At this time food would not be served;though
may be added in the future.
Since amendments to State Statute in 2011, microbreweries with taprooms have become more
common in the metro area. Currently, New Ulm, Stillwater, St. Louis Park, Excelsior, Lino
Lakes and Roseville allow taprooms. Attached is a memo that was presented to the St. Louis
Park City Council on August 6, 2012, to amend their liquor ordinance and zoning code to allow
taprooms (Attachment A).
To fully permit the Brent Brewstillery proposal (Attachment B), the following changes must be
made:
• A new license for on-sale sales at a microbrewery
• A new license for off-sale sales at a microbrewery
• Creation of a new land use for microbreweries which would allow manufacturing and
distribution as a primary use in the B-4 district
• Creation of a new land use for microdistilleries which would allow manufacturing and
distribution as a primary use in the B-4 district
At the August 20, 2012, City Council work session, Staff was directed to move forward with the
necessary zoning code amendments to permit microbreweries and microdistilleries in the B-4
district. The Council also indicated that other districts should allow brewery taprooms as a
permitted land use. Staff has drafted a zoning code amendment(Attachment C) that contains the
following key components:
• A definition of microbrewery and microdistillery
•" Conditional land use in B-4, B-3, I-FLEX, M-B, and G-B
Staff would like additional feedback on:
• Any conditions on the land use
• Other districts that might be suitable
• Hours of operation

Next Steps
Based on the discussion with the Planning Commission, Staff will work with the applicant on the
proposal. The formal review and public hearing is currently scheduled for the October 3, 2012,
Planning Commission meeting. If the Planning Commission provides a recommendation the
item will go to the Council at their October 29, 2012,meeting.

TITLE:
First Reading of Zoning Ordinance Amendment- Brewery Taprooms
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to Adopt First Reading of Ordinance amending the Zoning Code pertaining to Brewery
Taprooms, and to set the second reading for August 20, 2012.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the City Council wish to snake changes to the Zoning Code to allow brewer taprooms?
BACKGROUND:
MN Statutes were recently amended to allow municipalities to issue a taproom license to a state
licensed brewer. The City has been approached by Steel Toe Brewing, located at 4848 35tn
Street in the Beltline Industrial Park, about allowing a Brewer Taproom at its facility (letter
attached). Before the City can issue a taproom license, changes have to be made to the Zoning
Ordinance to identify which zoning districts a taproom is allowed, and the conditions in which it
can operate.
The City Council discussed the taproom option at its May 21, 2012 and June 25, 2012 study
sessions, and directed staff to prepare amendments to allow taprooms. As directed, staff
prepared the attached amendment to the Zoning Ordinance for your review. The draft ordinance
was reviewed by the City Attorney, and determined to be consistent with State Law and existing
City Ordinances. A summary of the ordinance follows:
Zoning Amendment:
1. Staff is proposing to create the following land use definitions that would be amended into the
zoning ordinance:
Taproom means a facility where on-sale of malt liquor produced by the brewer for
consumption on the premises of, or adjacent to, the brewery location owned by the brewer at
which the malt liquor is produced.
Brewery means a facility that manufactures alcoholic and/or nonalcoholic malt liquor. This
definition does not include breweries operated in conjunction with a restaurant as an
accessory use.
2. Breweries are proposed to be allowed in the Business Park, Industrial Park and General
Industrial Zoning Districts as permitted uses. Currently we consider breweries under the
"manufacturing/processing" land use which is a permitted land use (Conditional Use Permit
not required) in the Industrial Park and General Industrial Zoning Districts. Breweries are
proposed to be permitted with the following condition:
Business Park and Industrial Park - the brewery shall not produce more than 3,500 barrels
per year. This requirement will maintain consistency with the growler and taproom
requirements.
City Council Meeting of August 6,2012(Item No. 8a) Page 2
Subject: First Reading of Zoning Ordinance Amendment-Brewery Taprooms
General Industrial Park — no additional conditions. A brewery in this district can produce
any amount of beverage; however, it will not be allowed to sell growlers once it exceeds
3,500 barrels per year (per state law). Staff also recommends that a taproom not be allowed
in the General Industrial District even if it produces less than 3,500 barrels per year. The
General Industrial District is intended to manufacture and warehouse items on a large scale.
Therefore, it is not conducive to general public traffic looking for refreshment or
entertainment activities.
3. Taprooms are proposed to be located in the Business Park and Industrial Park Zoning
Districts with the following condition:
Up to 25% of the gross floor area of the Brewery in a Business Park District, and up to15%
in the Industrial Park Zoning District may be used for any combination of retail and a
taproom.
The 25% and 15% floor area limitations are already established in the Business Park and
Industrial Park Zoning District for retail and service uses. Staff is proposing to include the
taproom in the area limitation so that the total of all taproom, retail and other accessory uses
in total do not exceed the 25% or 15% limitation.
Liquor License Amendment:
Changes are also proposed to the Liquor License Ordinance to license taprooms and establish
criteria and conditions specific to taprooms. Both the Liquor License amendment and the
Zoning Ordinance amendment will be heard by the City Council on August 6th. The Liquor
License amendment is scheduled separately because a public hearing is required to be conducted
by the City Council. There is a separate staff report for that item that summarizes the proposed
liquor license amendment.
Planning Commission Action:
A public hearing was held at the July 18, 2012 Planning Commission meeting. Jason
Schoneman, owner of Steel Toe Brewery, spoke in favor of the amendment. The Commission
voted (6-0)to recommend approval of the ordinance.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
Not applicable.
VISION CONSIDERATION:
St. Louis Park is committed to promoting and integrating arts, culture and community aesthetics
in all city initiatives.

EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
1. Introduction
The last two decades have witnessed an explosion of beer styles available to the
American public, primarily offered by small microbreweries and brewpubs. There
are as many styles of beer available today, as there are wine styles!
The growth of home brewing as a hobby is a factor adding to the demand for micro
brewed products. This hobby is concentrated amongst higher income (upper/ upper-
middle class) males and females, and is growing rapidly. Beer appreciation seems
to be gaining a status and refinement comparable to wine tasting.

Following closely behind craft brewing is craft distilling. Craft distilling is not a huge
leap from craft brewing. Both processes use a lot of the same equipment and are
done in small batches with attention to quality and creativity. Distilling is more than
making corn squeezin's in the mountains of Kentucky. Distilling is a noble, artisan
craft dating back 5,000 years. The craft has been diluted and commoditized by the
mega-distillers just like the beer industry of 20 years ago.

The recent distilling innovators have their roots in craft brewing. In 1993, Anchor
Brewing, considered one of the first micro-breweries in the US, became the first
brewery in the world with its own distillery. Nine years later, Dogfish Head, arguably
the most famous craft brewery of today became the second. Today there are
roughly 235 craft distilleries in the US, around 20 are operated by craft breweries. In
addition to the aforementioned Anchor and Dogfish Head are Rogue's House of
Spirits in Oregon, Ranger Creek in Texas, New Holland Brewing and Artisan Spirits
in Michigan, Square One Brewery and Distillery in Missouri.
Panther Distillery in Osakis, MN is proud to be the first craft distillery in MN, I would
be proud to be the first craft distillery in the Twin Cities and the first Brewstillery in
Minnesota.

2. The Company
Blume Brauhaus, LLC is a privately-funded, family-owned business serving the craft
community of the Twin Cities, MN. Blume Brauhaus will do business as Bent
Brewstillery featuring Beer, Bourbon and Spirits. The name Bent is used because
most of the beers are not made to style. They are "bent" a little bit away from the
norm. This sometimes comes from combining the best parts of 2 different styles.
Similar bul.different(skewed).
The Goal — Bent Brewstillery will provide products that the public wants in a
comfortable, inviting atmosphere. The main company goal is to create a
complimentary and mutually supportive business in Arden Hills that will become a
"must-see" destination listing with the MN Board of Tourism.
The Mission —To help fuel the Craft Beverage movement so that beer and bourbon
can truly be appreciated again as a flavorful drink not just a mind-numbing
anesthetic. To stop guzzling and start enjoying and understanding the true qualities
of beer and bourbon. The company will market to the highest-end beer and bourbon
drinker. The company will create an environment of mutual respect continually
through honesty and integrity in all of our relationships with our workers, customers,
partners, suppliers, and the public. The company mantra will be: "A Stranger is a
Friend that we haven't shared a beer with yet.„
The Location —We are finalizing a lease with Roberts Development Co for 1168
Red Fox Road. This location is great for being noticed and will provide"drive-by'
marketing in that all cars passing on nearby Lexington Ave and Interstate 694 will
have easy access to the building. Since retail and tours is the goal, this location is
perfect for access and exposure. It will create another"draw' to the surrounding
businesses and be complimentary and mutually supportive.
3. The Plan
Bent Brewstillery will start with a very small operation. The staff will consist of the
owner, a bookkeeper/accountant, and an assistant brewer. The Brewstillery will be
equal parts production and retail. The reason for the space and location is retail
Retail can only include products produced on the premises. The large retail space
and tap room will serve the following purposes:
1. Sell beer growlers (64-oz bottles)and bombers(22-oz bottles) for off-premise
consumption as allowed by Minnesota law,
2. Sell pints for on-premise consumption in accordance with the Minnesota Pint
Law,
3. Sell spirits for on-premise consumption (when legal) in accordance with
Minnesota Law,
4. Sell company swag,
5. Provide free beer(and bourbon when legal) samples,
6. Start and end point for Brewstillery tours,
7. Serve as a gathering spot to discuss beer, bourbon, and other poignant topics of
the day
This retail space will flow directly into the production area of the brewery and
distillery. This will bring all visitors into the production side of the company giving
them a sense of insertion into the process.
The overriding idea and concept is to create a"destination not a production facility.
A destination that is more than just a location but an experience to be shared (and
repeated).
With continued success of both product lines and their successful combination into
the Brewstillery, will come further growth and expansion of the company. More
space will be secured and more employees will be hired.

6. Where to go from Here
The overriding idea is to create a complimentary and mutually supportive business
in Arden Hills that will become a "must-see" destination listing with the MN Board of
Tourism. To do this, I request the following:
First, add a new Permitted Use for"Microbrewery/Microdistillery". This Permitted
Use would then be applied to the building designated in The Location above.
Second, amend the liquor license to include a brewer tap room as has been
instated in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Stillwater (1st in MN), Excelsior, Lino Lakes,
recently Roseville, and most recently St. Louis Park.
Definitions:
The Brewers Association Defines a Microbrewery: A brewery that produces less
than 15,000 barrels of beer per year. Microbreweries sell to the public by the
following methods: the traditional three-tier system; the two-tier system; and, directly
to the consumer through carry outs and/or on-site tap-room sales.
2011 Minnesota Statutes; 340A.101; Subd. 17a. Defines a Microdistillery:
"Microdistillery" is a distillery operated within the state producing premium, distilled
spirits in total quantity not to exceed 40,000 proof gallons in a calendar year.
