EVENT INFO
Distillers - Attendees will stop at your table for a complimentary sample, learn about your spirits and distillery, and have the opportunity to place an order for bottles. Sample pours must be served in .5oz plastic tasting cups - you must provide your own sample cups and trash can.
You may sell cocktails that do not exceed a total of 2 fl oz (with a max of .5 fl oz distilled spirits in them). You may charge a cost for the cocktails. Attendees also have the opportunity to purchase full size cocktails at the main event bar.
When a bottle order is placed, the guest may take it with them from the table or pick it up at bottle will-call on their way out. If doing will-call pick-up, attach a ticket to the bottle with a rubber band (tickets and rubber bands provided) and give them the matching stub. We will have event staff continuously passing by tables to collect your bottles for will-call. A Special Event Distillery (SED) license is required to sell bottles. See below for SED details.
Vendors - If you are selling vermouth or wine-containing products, you will need a Special Event Winery (SEW) license to sell bottles. See below for SEW details.
SPECIAL EVENT DISTILLERY & WINERY LICENSE
In order to sell bottles of your alcoholic products, an SED or SEW is required through the OLCC. We anticipate 500-600 attendees to the event, so a Operational Plan will need to be filled out with your application.
SED INSTRUCTIONS:
You’ll need to submit an OLCC Government Recommendation Form for your SED to the City of Portland on their Civic Portal.
And then submit your SED on the OLCC CAMP platform. Please don’t wait to get your license because we will want to collect it ahead of the event.
