Title

Alcoholic beverages, brewpub licensees authorized to sell beer brewed on-premises to a licensed wholesaler for distribution to retail licensees Secs. 28-4A-2, 28-4A-3, 28-4A-4, 28-4A-6 am'd.

Description

Under existing law, alcoholic beverage manufacturers located in Alabama that produce beer are not permitted to sell any alcoholic beverages on-premises. The only exception is a special class of beer manufacturers called brewpubs, permitted under the Alabama Brewpub Act, which may sell beer brewed on-premises to consumers for on-premises consumption only.

This bill would remove certain limitations on brewpub operation and allow brewpub licensees to sell beer brewed on-premises to a licensed wholesaler for distribution to retail licensees.
