South-Florida-Alcohol-Liquor-Licensing-A-Snapshot.Pdf
South Florida Alcohol and Liquor Licensing – A Snapshot By Valerie L. Haber, Miami Alcohol Law and Food Law Attorney Many clients come to GrayRobinson’s Alcohol Law Group with the misconception that getting a beer and wine license, or liquor license in South Florida, (including the City of Miami, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Broward County or Palm Beach County,) will be a straightforward process. Before reaching out to us, these clients often find themselves stuck in a holding pattern with state or local agencies, which oftentimes have convoluted and burdensome requirements that must be met before a state alcohol license can be issued. Complicating matters further, local municipal requirements vary greatly. For example, the City of Miami Beach, which includes South Beach, requires that you obtain a Certificate of Use and Business Tax Receipt before you can apply for your state alcohol beverage license. The City of Miami, which includes downtown Miami, the Design District, Wynwood, Coconut Grove, and the Calle Ocho area, requires that multiple local inspections be performed before their zoning department will sign off on a state alcohol beverage application. Navigating these complexities can be tough, but completely manageable once you understand important aspects of the licensing process. Florida Liquor License and Beer and Wine License Types: As a starting point, if you are a new business in South Florida wanting to sell alcohol beverages, including beer, wine, or spirits, you need to determine what type of alcohol or liquor license is appropriate for your intended operations. There are multiple Florida alcohol license types available to you through the Florida Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco (the “DABT”), including: Beer and wine for on-premise consumption (2COP license): A “2COP” license allows the licensee to sell beer and wine for on-premise consumption.

Mechanisms of Ethanol-Induced Cerebellar Ataxia: Underpinnings of Neuronal Death in the Cerebellum
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Review Mechanisms of Ethanol-Induced Cerebellar Ataxia: Underpinnings of Neuronal Death in the Cerebellum Hiroshi Mitoma 1,* , Mario Manto 2,3 and Aasef G. Shaikh 4 1 Medical Education Promotion Center, Tokyo Medical University, Tokyo 160-0023, Japan 2 Unité des Ataxies Cérébelleuses, Service de Neurologie, CHU-Charleroi, 6000 Charleroi, Belgium; [email protected] 3 Service des Neurosciences, University of Mons, 7000 Mons, Belgium 4 Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, Cleveland, OH 44022, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Ethanol consumption remains a major concern at a world scale in terms of transient or irreversible neurological consequences, with motor, cognitive, or social consequences. Cerebellum is particularly vulnerable to ethanol, both during development and at the adult stage. In adults, chronic alcoholism elicits, in particular, cerebellar vermis atrophy, the anterior lobe of the cerebellum being highly vulnerable. Alcohol-dependent patients develop gait ataxia and lower limb postural tremor. Prenatal exposure to ethanol causes fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), characterized by permanent congenital disabilities in both motor and cognitive domains, including deﬁcits in general intelligence, attention, executive function, language, memory, visual perception, and commu- nication/social skills. Children with FASD show volume deﬁcits in the anterior lobules related to sensorimotor functions (Lobules I, II, IV, V, and VI), and lobules related to cognitive functions (Crus II and Lobule VIIB). Various mechanisms underlie ethanol-induced cell death, with oxidative stress and Citation: Mitoma, H.; Manto, M.; Shaikh, A.G.

Know Your Liquor VODKA WHISKY
Know Your Liquor VODKA Good to know: Vodka is least likely to give you a hangover Vodka is made by fermenting grains or crops such as potatoes with yeast. It's then purified and repeatedly filtered, often through charcoal, strange as it sounds, until it's as clear as possible. CALORIES: Because vodka contains no carbohydrates or sugars, it contains only calories from ethanol (around 7 calories per gram), making it the least-fattening alcoholic beverage. So a 35ml shot of vodka would contain about 72 calories. PROS: Vodka is the 'cleanest' alcoholic beverage because it contains hardly any 'congeners' - impurities normally formed during fermentation.These play a big part in how bad your hangover is. Despite its high alcohol content - around 40 per cent - vodka is the least likely alcoholic drink to leave you with a hangover, said a study by the British Medical Association CONS: Vodka is often a factor in binge drinking deaths because it is relatively tasteless when mixed with fruit juices or other drinks. HANGOVER SEVERITY: 3/10 WHISKY Good to know: Whisky or Scotch is distilled from fermented grains, such as barley or wheat, then aged in wooded casks. Whisky 'madness': It triggers erratic and unpredictable behaviour because most people drink whisky neat CALORIES: About 80 calories per 35ml shot. PROS: Single malt whiskies have been found to contain high levels of ellagic acid, according to Dr Jim Swan of the Royal Society of Chemists. This powerful acid inhibits the growth of tumours caused by certain carcinogens and kills cancer cells without damaging healthy cells.

Liquid Honesty: the First Amendment Right to Market the Health Benefits of Moderate Alcohol Consumption
LIQUID HONESTY: THE FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT TO MARKET THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF MODERATE ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION ERIK BIERBAUER* For several years, wine makers have sought to advertise and othenvise promore scientific research showing that moderate drinking can have beneficial health ef- fects. The federal govermnen4 however, has largely blocked the wine makers' ef- forts, contending that advertisementsor labels referringto alcohol'spotential health benefits would almost invariablymislead consuners into discounting alcohol's nu- merous dangers. In this Note, Erik Bierbauerargues that wine makers and other alcoholproducers have a FirstAmendment right to market the health benefits of moderate drinking, as long as they do so accurately and include certain limited disclaimers in theirpromotional materials. INTRODUCTION In February 1999, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF)' allowed vine makers to place two carefully worded state- ments referring to "the health effects of wine consumption" on bottle labels.2 The statements, which suggest but do not explicitly say that drinking wine confers health benefits, were approved by ATF after * I thank the staff of the New York University Law Review for their excellent editing. Thanks also to Professors Burt Neuborne and Jerome Skolnick for their helpful comments at early stages of this Note's development. Thanks as well to Sam Kazman of the Competi- tive Enterprise Institute for sending me filings from CEI's suit against the federal govern- ment. Many thanks to Karin Wolfe for enduring, and even encouraging, this and other law-related obsessions. Finally, thanks to my father, Michael Bierbauer, for suggesting this Note's topic and for teaching me, usually with patience and always with wvit, the value of moderation.

June 2011 Newsletter
JUNE 2011 NEWSLETTER When is a beer a beer? Alcohol definitions are critical de-regulation issues! Do you ever wonder why there are products in a store’s “beer” section that clearly aren’t beer? Do you know why products that amount to 4-5 drinks in a single container are sold in a convenience store? The explanation is usually found in the “definition” section of your state’s alcohol laws. After Prohibition, most states adopted a regulatory system that fostered moderate drinking. One method was to make alcohol products with low alcohol content widely available in grocery stores, but confine other products to more tightly controlled liquor stores. At that time, a low alcohol content product usually meant beer with about 3-4% alcohol. The statutes which say what can be sold where use definitions of beer, wine and spirits for this purpose. Thus, in many states beer, as defined in the statute, But, over the years two things happened. First, the may be sold in grocery and convenience stores and alcohol content of beer crept up. States were asked spirits and sometimes wine, as defined in the to modify their definitions to allow higher alcohol statute, must be confined to a liquor store. The content products. It didn’t seem like a big deal when definitions usually include a description of how the the change was from 4% to 5%, but today craft beers product is made and a limit on alcohol content. For are sometimes in the 8% range and can actually be as example, beer is often described as a fermented high as 20%.
