Provided, that nothing herein shall prevent a person from making low-point beer, as defined by Section 163.2 of this title, by simple fermentation for personal use if the maker of such beverages has first applied for and possesses a valid personal use permit issued by the Alcoholic Beverage Laws Enforcement Commission, as provided in Section 4 of this act, and the total volume of low-point beer produced in any given calendar year is less than two hundred (200) gallons. No beverage made pursuant to a personal use permit shall be sold or offered for sale.
