Alcoholic beverage control; spirit samples.

The bill eliminates the prohibition on providing more than four samples of alcoholic beverage products or, in the case of spirits samples, more than three ounces of spirits to any person per day and removes the requirement that distillers use a method to track the consumption of each consumer.

Glad to see this, hope it passes. There is no reasonable argument for not passing SB482.
