METRO NASHVILLE BEER BOARD VOTES TO EXTEND CURBSIDE SALES AND DELIVERY THROUGH OCTOBER 2020

Through Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County Beer Board Emergency Order No. 1 (which we blogged about here), and subsequent Order No. 2, Metro has allowed curbside delivery and direct to consumer delivery of beer by holders of Metro Beer Board on-premise and on/off-premise beer permits.  On Wednesday, July 29, 2020, the Metro Beer Board voted to extend curbside sales and delivery through October 31, 2020.  Permit holders who already hold a delivery permit under the emergency regulations need do nothing, as their permits will be automatically renewed every thirty days.  Businesses who have not yet obtained their temporary delivery permit can apply for one through the Beer Board staff.

Metro’s Chief Medical Director has prohibited restaurants and from being open for business after 10:00 p.m.  Thus, curbside delivery must cease by 10:00 p.m.  Delivery direct to consumer must also cease by 10:00 p.m.  The Beer Board’s order will specifically hold that if and when Metro removes the 10:00 p.m. restriction, the restriction in the Beer Board order will automatically be repealed as well.  Chairman Taylor stated the desire of the board to make curbside service and delivery a permanent measure. 

Permit holders who have not yet obtained a temporary permit to allow for delivery and curbside service options are asked to email the following information to beerboard@nashville.gov:

Physical Address of the Permittee

E-mail Address

Phone Number

Current Permit Number and Whether it is On-Sale or On/Off-Sale
