Once recent legislation sponsored by state Sen. Karin Housley (R-St. Mary’s Point) is signed into law, the Castlewood Golf Course will only have to receive approval from the Forest Lake City Council to begin selling full-strength alcohol.

Previously, the golf course was restricted to selling alcohol of at highest 3.2 ABV, according to a news release from the Minnesota Senate Republican Caucus.

“I’m proud to have secured this important provision for the Castlewood Golf Course and the City of Forest Lake. After years of being able to sell only 3.2% beer, the golf course can finally enter the 21st century with the sales of full-strength beer, wine and spirits. People will finally be able to enjoy a beer or a glass of wine on the course or in the pro shop,” Housley said.

Housley said the city has wanted permission for the golf course for a long time.

“And as with all municipal alcohol sales, the funds allow the city to make investments in other important efforts in Forest Lake,” she said.
