beer license

Tavern selling authorization

A beer license is official authorization from a government authority permitting the sale of beer.

Establishments serving alcohol must obtain appropriate licenses, and a beer license may be distinct from licenses covering wine or spirits: The restaurant only has a beer license, so they can't serve cocktails.

Also called a beer permit.
