  • Alcoholic Beverages; Authorizing a Manufacturer Licensee to Hold a Drinking Establishment License
    To: House Federal & State Affairs Committee February 14, 2017 From: R.E. “Tuck” Duncan RE: HB2141 — Alcoholic beverages; authorizing a manufacturer licensee to hold a drinking establishment license. The KWSWA opposes HB2141. This bill creates a “tied house” which is contrary to state and federal public policy. The Federal Alcohol Administration Act provides at 7 United States Code, Chapter 8, Subchapter I, Section 205 establishes "Tied house" violations. As prescribed under the Tied House provisions, it is unlawful for industry members to induce, directly or indirectly, a retailer to purchase alcoholic beverage products from the industry member to the exclusion, in whole or in part, of alcohol beverage products offered for sale by others. This guidance is issued to address recent examples of industry members found to have furnished retailers with unlawful inducements by supplying items of value such as product displays, point of sale advertising materials, equipment and supplies in exchange for favorable product shelf or display space. TTB regulations at 27 CFR 6.21(a) through (g) list seven prohibited means to induce that can lead to a violation under the Tied House provisions Paragraph (c) of this regulation provides that an industry member may not furnish, give, rent, lend, or sell to a retailer any equipment, fixtures, signs, supplies, money, services, or other things of value, subject to the exceptions listed under Subpart D of part 6. Sec. 6.11 defines industry member and retailer as follows: Industry member. Any person engaged in business as a distiller, brewer, rectifier, blender, or other producer, or as an importer or wholesaler, of distilled spirits, wine or malt beverages, or as a bottler, or warehousemen and bottler, of distilled spirits; industry member does not include an agency of a State or political subdivision thereof, or an officer or employee of such agency.

  • California's Tied House Laws
    California’s Tied House Laws Unnecessary Barrier to Business or Reasonable Regulation? Matthew D. Botting General Counsel California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” George Santayana (1905) Reason in Common Sense, p. 284, volume 1 of The Life of Reason What is “good” regulation of alcohol and who gets to decide? “Public policy” is a balancing of choices, which seems to make it appear to be a constantly moving target. Beyond keeping alcohol out of the hands of minors and keeping communities safe, it is often difficult to articulate a coherent public policy of alcohol regulation. Hard to explain the three-tier system and the purposes behind the tied-house laws. Alcohol seems to be viewed more and more as a commodity rather than a potentially dangerous product deserving of strict regulation. This results in policy decisions often being made based upon economic considerations of the alcoholic beverage industry. Evolution of alcohol regulation in California since the 1950’s has been toward breaking down strict segregation. As influential individuals and companies seek to do business across tiers, there is greater pressure to allow cross-tier ownership and promotional opportunities. Everyone wants a piece of the pie: third party providers, event promoters, brand builders, intellectual property, apps, social media, delivery services, etc., etc. Regulatory challenges of dealing with unlicensed parties – what they tell us they are doing is not always accurate (or can change very quickly). Who is really controlling the transaction and selling the alcohol. Cal. Constitution, Art. XX, Sec.

HAWLEY Missouri Attorney General D. John Sauer Joshua M. Divine Emily A. Dodge P.O. Box 899 Jefferson City, MO 65102 Tel: (573) 751-4305 Fax: (573) 751-5818 [email protected] Counsel for Appellants Appellate Case: 18-2611 Page: 1 Date Filed: 10/19/2018 Entry ID: 4717336 CASE SUMMARY AND STATEMENT ON ORAL ARGUMENT Missouri’s “tied-house” law prohibits manufacturers and distributors from providing financial support to retailers of alcohol. Relying on a Ninth Circuit panel decision that had already been overruled en banc, the district court declared this law unconstitutional under the First Amendment. That decision conflicts with the Ninth Circuit’s en banc decision. And because nearly every state and the federal government has adopted a tied-house law just like Missouri’s, the district court’s decision casts doubt on dozens of similar laws. The district court also declared two provisions in a regulation unconstitutional. Those provisions bar advertising alcohol at below cost because below-cost alcohol is far more likely to be overconsumed or purchased by those who are underage. The district court overlooked that the provisions significantly decrease overconsumption because Plaintiffs themselves admitted that advertisements for below-cost alcohol “significantly” increase consumption of that kind of alcohol. Because this appeal concerns the constitutionality of a statute adopted by nearly every jurisdiction, plus two provisions important to public welfare, the State requests 20 minutes for oral argument.

  • Alcohol Beverages Three-Tier Laws Prepared By: Melissa Schmidt, Senior Staff Attorney
    WISCONSIN LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL IssueBrief October 2019 Alcohol Beverages Three-Tier Laws Prepared by: Melissa Schmidt, Senior Staff Attorney This issue brief provides background information regarding Wisconsin’s system for regulating the manufacture, distribution, and sale of alcohol beverages, commonly referred to as the “three-tier system.” In Wisconsin, the three tiers, or categories, of regulated entities are: (1) manufacturers; (2) wholesalers (or distributors); and (3) retailers. The state’s three-tier laws are set forth in ch. 125, Stats., Wisconsin’s Alcohol Beverages Chapter, and are enforced by the Department of Revenue (DOR). ORIGIN OF THE THREE-TIER SYSTEM After the repeal of Prohibition by the ratification of the Twenty-first Amendment, states were tasked with regulating the alcohol beverages industry. In an effort to prevent the negative effects of alcohol, John D. Rockefeller, Jr. commissioned a study, commonly referred to as the “Rockefeller Study”,1 to evaluate how states could best regulate the alcohol industry. The study concluded that state regulatory structures should not stimulate the demand for alcohol, but instead, meet the normal demand. Reasons for doing so included guarding against problems like bootlegging and tied-houses that were common before Prohibition while also protecting consumers from exploitation. This study became the basis for states’ regulatory tiered structures for regulating alcohol beverages,2 including Wisconsin’s three-tier system.

  • Brewery Quick Reference
    Brewery Quick Reference LICENSING Do I need a brewer’s license? If you are manufacturing beer1 in New York State for resale, you must be licensed by the State Liquor Authority (SLA) as well as have a brewer’s notice through the federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB).2 https://www.ttb.gov/beer/ Can I be a licensed brewer in New York State? Statutory Disqualifiers The following are the five categories of person who cannot hold an SLA license: (1) persons who have been convicted of any felony, or promoting or permitting prostitution, or sale of liquor without an alcoholic beverage license; 3 (2) persons under the age of 21; (3) persons who are not a United State citizen, an alien admitted to the United State for permanent lawful residence, or a citizen of a reciprocal trade nation (see SLA Advisory #2015-21); (4) persons whose alcoholic beverage license was revoked for cause within the past 2 years; (5) persons who are police officers/police officials. Tied House Additionally, the “tied house law” prohibits any person who holds a direct or indirect interest in any retail establishment selling alcoholic beverages (whether in New York State, another state, or abroad) from holding a brewer’s license (or any other manufacturing or wholesaling license) in New York State. 4 Must I have my own brewery to be licensed? In order to be licensed as a brewer in New York State, you must actually produce beer (not just contract out production) and have your own facility or have a tenancy at the facility of another where such production occurs.

  • All Manufacturers, Suppliers, Brokers, Wholesale Distributors, and Retail Permit Holders
    MEMORANDUM TO: All Manufacturers, Suppliers, Brokers, Wholesale Distributors, and Retail Permit Holders FROM: James V. Canepa, Superintendent, Division of Liquor Control DATE: April 11, 2019 RE: Trade Practice Reminders ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As Superintendent of the Division of Liquor Control (Division), I would like to take this opportunity to answer some recent stakeholder questions. Glassware The Division has recently seen an increase in the number of questions received regarding the provision of glassware to retail permit holders. The Division is providing the following information to educate all members of Ohio’s Three-Tier System. Ohio’s Tied House Law, R.C. 4301.24, prohibits a manufacturer or wholesale distributor from aiding or assisting a retail permit holder by “gift or loan of any money or property of any description or other valuable thing, or by giving premiums or rebates.” It also prohibits the retail permit holder from receiving any such items. The Ohio Liquor Control Commission (Commission) has codified exceptions to the general Tied House prohibition, many of which are found at O.A.C. 4301:1-1-43. With regard to glassware, this rule states: (B) No manufacturer or wholesale distributor of alcoholic beverages shall furnish advertising specialties or utilitarian specialties to any retail permit holder at less than their full cost, including glassware or other containers intended for the serving of alcohol beverages, except that: . (2) Trays, bar caddys, bar mats, matches, crumbers, stir sticks, menu cards, paper coasters, foam scrapers, olive picks, back bar display pieces, lighters, cigar cutters, T-shirts, hats, wine bottle seals, buckets, glassware or other containers intended for the serving of alcohol beverages, and other similar items, which bear a brand name or logo for any type of alcoholic beverage, may be furnished by the manufacturer or supplier free of charge to any retail permit holder.
