What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill allows a temporary retail alcohol beverage licensee to obtain the beer or wine to be sold to consumers under the license from another retailer rather than a wholesaler.
Current law authorizes municipalities to issue temporary Class “B" and “Class B" licenses to certain clubs, fair associations, agricultural societies, churches, veterans organizations, lodges, and societies that authorize the retail sale of, respectively, fermented malt beverages (beer) and wine at fairs, meetings, picnics, and similar gatherings hosted by these organizations. Unless a specific statutory exception applies, a person issued a temporary retail license is subject to the same requirements as other retail licensees. Among these requirements, a retail licensee may not purchase beer or wine from any person other than a wholesaler.
