SUMMARY AS PASSED:

Allows a brewery, winery, or farm winery located within or outside the Commonwealth that is authorized to engage in the retail sale of wine or beer, after obtaining a delivery permit from the ABC Board, to deliver wine and beer to consumers. Such privilege was removed as a result of recent federal litigation challenging the constitutionality of Virginia's ABC law. The bill contains technical amendments, including relocating the existing provisions concerning direct shipment of wine and beer (§ 4.1-112.1) to the administration of licenses portion of ABC law. This bill is identical to SB1289.
