I seem to recall a business in the UK that was taken to court for selling alcohol (beer) without a licence.
The trial ended quite swiftly after it was pointed out that there were never any sales of alcohol. What in reality happened was that patrons used to rent space and containers, buy malt, hops, barley, brewers yeast, and water. Their mix was then stored in their rented container in their rented space for them until it had turned into beer, and was then bottled for them. There was no exchange of cash whatsoever after the initial purchase and rental.
I wonder if such an enterprise could somehow be massaged into reality in this case?
