All beer consumed on a brewery's premises shall be accounted for.

(a) Except as provided in Subdivision (b), tax shall be paid on all beer consumed by brewery employees, visitors and others in a brewery tavern. Beer manufactured by the brewery for consumption in a brewery tavern, and which is placed in a storage tank designed for this purpose, shall be subject to tax at the time it is placed in the storage tank. For purposes of this Regulation, a “tavern” means a federally approved portion of the brewery premises where beer is sold to consumers.

(b) Beer consumed by brewery employees, visitors and others is not subject to tax if consumed without charge within the brewery's bonded premises and not in a brewery tavern.
