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.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
