24.1. A small-scale production permit authorizes the holder, in accordance with the regulations, to(1) make the alcoholic beverages, other than beer, specified in the permit and bottle them and, if the permit authorizes him to make alcohol and spirits, to distil;
(1.1) have his raw materials pressed and the alcoholic beverages he makes filtered and bottled, on his behalf and in his establishment, by a person who has the necessary equipment and expertise;
(2) purchase alcohol from the Société to blend with the alcoholic beverages he makes.
Unless he ships them outside Québec, the holder of a small-scale production permit may sell alcoholic beverages referred to in the subparagraphs below, but only as provided for:(1) the alcoholic beverages he makes, at the place where they are produced, for consumption on the premises indicated in the permit or for consumption elsewhere;
(2) at the place where they are produced, to the holder of a permit issued under the Act respecting liquor permits (chapter P-9.1) that authorizes alcoholic beverages, other than alcohol and spirits, made at such a place to be sold or served for consumption on the premises, provided that a numbered sticker issued by the board is affixed by the permit holder to each container, in numerical order, at the time of sale; (3) the alcoholic beverages he makes, other than alcohol and spirits, in a room or on a terrace where a permit issued under the Act respecting liquor permits authorizes the permit holder to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises, provided that a numbered sticker issued by the board is affixed by the permit holder to each original container, in numerical order.
The holder of a small-scale production permit may also sell and deliver the alcoholic beverages he makes to the Société. He may also sell and deliver the alcoholic beverages he makes to the holder of a grocery permit issued under the Act respecting liquor permits, if the beverages meet the following conditions:(1) they are not alcohol or spirits;
(2) they are obtained by alcoholic fermentation.
The holder of a small-scale production permit may transport the alcoholic beverages he makes to the establishment of the holder of an artisan producers cooperative permit so that the latter may make alcohol or spirits on his behalf; the small-scale production permit holder may transport the alcohol or spirits from that establishment to his own.
The holder of a small-scale production permit may not offer the alcoholic beverages he makes for sale that are ready for marketing without first having them analyzed by the Société or a laboratory recognized by it to confirm their safety and quality and without having sent the analysis report to the Régie des alcools, des courses et des jeux.
No holder of such a permit may sell the alcoholic beverages he makes to the holder of a permit issued under this Act or, subject to the second and third paragraphs, under the Act respecting liquor permits.
For the application of this section, if alcohol or spirits are made by the holder of an artisan producers cooperative permit for the holder of a small-scale production permit, the latter is deemed to have made them in his establishment.
