Summary

(1) The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act authorizes a licensed beer manufacturer to sell to consumers, at the licensed premises of production, for consumption off the premises, beer that is produced and bottled by, or produced and packaged for, that manufacturer and to sell beer to any person holding a license authorizing the sale of beer. The act provides that a violation of its provisions is a misdemeanor unless otherwise specified. This bill would authorize a licensed beer manufacturer that produces more than 60,000 barrels of beer per year to manufacture cider or perry, as defined, at the licensed premises of production and to sell cider or perry to any licensee authorized to sell wine. By expanding the definition of a crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. (2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
