This is very much a legal mess and goes way beyond even the
permits for selling. It includes regulations about your production
facilities (no "I made it in the basement" stuff), federal tax code, on-
site inspections and a bunch of other legal stuff that makes it way
out of range for anyone who does not intend to set up a serious
business.
Lets just say that even our current practice concerning free
homebrew is extremely questionable and we have not been hassled
about it mainly because we have never had a problem. Low profile
and all that.
If you must have more info, look up the laws on transporting
homebrew and charging fees for events where alcohol is given
away.
