SB 919 - This act contains provisions relating to portable refrigeration units and the sale of draft beer in growlers. COOLERS - 311.198 This act allows a brewer to lease portable refrigeration units to retail licensees at a fair market value rate. A brewer may also enter into lease agreements with wholesalers, who may enter into sub-lease agreements with retail licensees at a fair market value rate. A wholesaler may not directly or indirectly fund the cost or maintenance of the portable refrigeration units. Under this act, no portable refrigeration unit may exceed 125 cubic feet in storage space. The portable refrigeration unit must bear in a conspicuous manner substantial advertising matter about a product or products of the brewer. GROWLERS - 311.201 This act allows any person who is licensed to sell intoxicating liquor in the original package at retail to sell 32 to 128 ounces of draft beer for consumption off the premises. This act specifies that no law or rule of the Supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control shall be interpreted to allow a liquor wholesaler, distributor, or manufacturer to provide dispensing or cooling equipment or growlers to anyone who has a retail license to sell liquor in the original package. This act provides the manner in which growlers may be filled and refilled and requirements for certain information to be provided on the growler. This provision is identical to SCS/HB 279 (2015) and SB 312 (2015). MEGHAN LUECKE
