Kingsport Beer Sales Rise Amid Licensing Debate

Kingsport officials lack an estimated revenue figure from liquor sales yet expect beer tax revenue to hit an all time high this year. The city collected 145 983 dollars in beer tax in fiscal 1986 and projects 145 000 dollars next year. Beer is regulated locally by ordinance with votes of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen, while liquor by the bottle requires a statewide or local option not available to Kingsport. The first readings sparked protests from ministers, and the final readings kept the wet outcome. Off premise permits outpace on premise, with motels allowed to serve beer in rooms but not in dining areas. Beer sales are described as a significant portion of business amid late hours and summer lake crowds.
