Forsyth malt pouring bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
The City of Forsyth, Georgia requires a $1,000 bond for a malt beverage (beer) retailer pouring license — serving beer by the drink for on-premises consumption at a bar or restaurant. Three percent of $1,000 is $30, but our $275 minimum applies — so this bond is $275 flat, and the application is five minutes.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A city alcohol license bond is a compliance-and-tax guarantee. The City of Forsyth conditions a malt beverage pouring license on this bond so there is a financial backstop that you will follow the city's alcohol beverage ordinance and pay the local alcohol taxes and license fees you collect or owe.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Forsyth (the obligee). If you violate the city alcohol ordinance or fail to remit local alcohol taxes, the city can recover against the bond up to the $1,000 penal sum.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Bars and restaurants that follow the ordinance and remit their taxes treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
