OFA Fiscal Note

Explanation

The amendment allows retail sales of spirits by manufacturers of alcoholic liquor for consumption off the premises. To the extent that this results in additional quantities of spirits being sold than would otherwise occur, this results in a minimal revenue gain from the Alcoholic Beverages Tax and the Sales & Use Tax.

The amendment also expands ninety-day provisional permits by allowing the manufacture of alcoholic liquor by any applicant seeking a liquor permit. This results in a potential minimal revenue gain.
