Beer manufacturers: sale of draught beer.
- Exempts brewery premises from requirements to display beer brand names on their draught taps.
- Maintains existing tap labeling requirements for all other bars and restaurants.
- Reduces regulatory burden for breweries while preserving consumer information at other venues.
Assembly Member Michelle Rodriguez's proposal to modify California's draught beer labeling requirements would exempt beer manufacturer premises from current regulations that mandate displaying beer brand information at dispensing points and consumption areas.
Under existing law, on-sale retail establishments must post clear notices showing the name or brand of draught beer at each tap and in service areas when dispensing equipment is located separately. The proposed exemption would allow premises operating under beer manufacturer licenses to dispense their products without these labeling requirements, while maintaining the existing standards for other retail establishments.
The measure maintains regulatory oversight of retail beer sales while acknowledging the distinct operating environment of manufacturing facilities that serve their products on-site. Current labeling requirements would continue to apply to traditional bars, restaurants, and other retail establishments serving draught beer to consumers.
