LIQUOR LICENSE

The sale of alcohol-containing beverages in Wisconsin is subject to different kinds of licensing. Class “A” (beer) licenses and “Class A” (liquor) licenses are issued for the sale of beverages for consumption off the premises, Class “B” (beer) and “Class B” (liquor) licenses are for on-premises consumption. A “Class C” license allows restaurants to sell wine for on-premises consumption.
