Under existing law, at its premises for off-premises consumption, a licensed brewery that produces less than 60,000 barrels of beer per year may sell at retail up to 288 ounces of beer per customer per day and a licensed distillery may sell at retail up to 2.25 liters of liquor per customer per day. Beer produced by a contract brewery is included for purposes of calculating whether a brewery has exceeded the 60,000 barrel limit.
This bill would eliminate the daily cap on the amount of beer or liquor that may be sold to customers by a brewery or distillery, respectively.
This bill would also provide that when calculating whether the licensed brewery produces less than 60,000 barrels annually, only beer provided by a contract brewery which is produced exclusively for the brewery shall be considered.
