In The Legal's Liquor Law supplement, learn about the newest trend on the market: alcoholic slushies, the effects of the U.S. Supreme Court's Tennessee Retailers' decision and the crafty ways liquor licenses are transferred in the state.
Forecast for craft beer industry increasingly focused on innovation via infusions also includes pitfalls to consider and manage amid state and federal regulatory uncertainty.
Perhaps you have seen or tried one of these spiked slushies at a winery or purchased one at a beer distributor. Consumers take for granted that there are intricate state regulations that govern the sale of these tasty treats, but in a control state like Pennsylvania, those individuals and businesses with liquor licenses must pay close attention to the rules.
Simply stated, this case addressed the constitutionality of a Tennessee state law that required applicants for state-issued retail package store liquor licenses to be two-year residents in the state before issuance of licenses and 10-year residents before renewal of licenses.
When defending dram shop/liquor liability cases, one sees on a repeat basis some of the worst effects that the over-consumption of alcohol can have.
It's undeniable that we are living in the golden age of craft beers. From large cities to small towns, restaurants and breweries are popping up in our neighborhoods and delighting beer drinkers with their crafty concoctions.
While these are all defined as malt or brewed beverages for distribution purposes under the Liquor Code, there are also new craft beverages like "canned cocktails" and wine-based beverages having different manufacturing origins that create other legal implications.
The popularity of craft breweries and distilleries has grown at exponential rates in the past few years. There are now over 1,800 craft distilleries in the United States, up from roughly 100 in 2005 and 7,400 craft distilleries up from approximately 1,400 in 2005.
