What it is and who needs it.
What the beer bond actually covers
Virginia ABC licenses beer manufacturers, bottlers, and wholesalers under Va. Code §4.1-239. These licensees file monthly reports of the beer they manufacture, bottle, or sell and pay the corresponding excise tax to the Board — and a surety bond stands behind that tax.
The bond guarantees the Board that the excise tax owed on beer sold to licensed retailers will be paid. If a licensee fails to remit, the Board can recover against the bond up to its penal sum.
The Board sizes the bond to your tax liability, with a statutory range from $1,000 up to $100,000. This $2,500 tier is priced at $100 flat; higher ABC-set amounts are priced separately. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — it's a guarantee, not insurance for you.
