SB321 Alabama 2021 Session

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 allow a brewery to sell up to 864 ounces of beer per customer per day and a distillery to sell up to 4.5 liters of liquor per customer per day for off premises consumption

This bill would also provide that when calculating whether a 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

Relating to alcoholic beverages; to amend Section 28-3A-6, Code of Alabama 1975, to revise the daily limit on how much beer and liquor may be sold by certain breweries and distilleries to customers for off-premises consumption, and to provide further for calculating which breweries qualify to sell beer at their breweries for off-premises consumption.
