The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act contains various provisions regulating the application for, the issuance of, the suspension of, and the conditions imposed upon alcoholic beverage licenses by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Existing law generally provides that a violation of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act is a misdemeanor. Existing law prohibits a licensee from having, upon the licensed premises, any alcoholic beverages other than the alcoholic beverage that the licensee is authorized to sell at the premises under their license, and makes a violation of this prohibition punishable as a misdemeanor. Existing law specifies various exceptions to that prohibition, including authorizing the holder of a beer manufacturer's license and a winegrower's license that holds both of those licenses for a single premises to have alcoholic beverages that are authorized under those licenses at the same time anywhere within the premises and also authorizes that licenseholder to maintain a designated area upon that premises where retail sales and consumption authorized under those licenses may occur, subject to specified conditions. This bill would add craft distilled spirits manufacturer's licenses and brandy manufacturer's licenses to that exception to the prohibition, thus authorizing the holder of a beer manufacturer's license, a winegrower's license, a craft distilled spirits manufacturer's license, or a brandy manufacturer's license that holds any combination of those licenses for a single premises to have alcoholic beverages that are authorized under those licenses at the same time anywhere within the premises and to maintain a designated area upon that premises where retail sales and consumption authorized under those licenses may occur, subject to specified conditions.
