Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 1726 -- Beer and Intoxicating Liquor

Sponsor:  Johnson (47)

This bill requires intoxicating and nonintoxicating beer to be
brewed from malt or a malt substitute.  Flavor and other
non-beverage ingredients containing alcohol may be used in
producing intoxicating and nonintoxicating beer but may not
contribute to more than 49% of the overall alcohol content of the
finished beer.

The bill also defines "brand" and "brand extension" and specifies
that a brewer or importer must offer to assign a brand extension
to a wholesaler to whom he or she granted the exclusive sales
territory for the brand if the brand extension was not assigned
before August 28, 2006.
