Description
Alcoholic beverage control; beer distribution. Creates a restricted wholesale beer license that authorizes the licensee to provide wholesale beer distribution services to brewery and limited brewery licensees, provided that no more than 500 barrels of beer shall be distributed by the corporation to each licensee in any one calendar year. The bill requires the Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services to establish and operate a nonprofit, nonstock corporation to hold such license to promote, develop, and sustain markets for brewery and limited brewery licensees. The bill prohibits the Board of Directors of the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority from (i) granting a wholesale wine license to any entity that is owned, in whole or in part, by any manufacturer of alcoholic beverages, any subsidiary or affiliate of such manufacturer, or any person under common control with such manufacturer and (ii) granting a wholesale beer license to any officer, director, or principal stockholder of a manufacturer of alcoholic beverages or to the spouse of such person; however, the bill exempts from such prohibition any spouse of an officer, director, or principal stockholder of a brewery or limited brewery licensee that was granted such license prior to January 1, 2024. The bill has a delayed effective date of July 1, 2024. Read the Bill »
