Winery, Brewery & Craft Beverage Insurance in Texas

Wineries, craft breweries, and distilleries carry a unique combination of manufacturing, retail, and hospitality exposures. Wines and brandy spirits are rated Preferred; malt beverages and distilled liquors Acceptable. Production liability, tasting room GL and liquor liability, large equipment values in brewing and winemaking systems, and product recall exposure make this a complex class that rewards careful coverage placement.

Coverage Details

Product recall coverage is the most frequently overlooked critical coverage for beverage producers. A contaminated batch requiring voluntary recall involves public notification costs, product destruction, replacement production expenses, and distribution recovery — none of which are covered under standard GL or commercial property. We include product recall in every beverage producer program and set recall expense limits based on your annual production volume.
