Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
Distilleries get self-distribution and rickhouses
A microdistillery can sell up to 3,500 gallons a year directly to Nebraska retail licensees. Only the business’s employees may deliver these sales, and wholesaler rules apply. A spirits manufacturer with a manufacturer’s license may run a rickhouse that meets federal distilled spirit plant rules as of January 1, 2024. The business must get approval from the Nebraska Liquor Control Commission and tell the commission the rickhouse location.
Brewer and distillery locations capped at eight
Craft brewery and microdistillery licenses may list up to eight separate locations. When a craft brewery tops 20,000 barrels and converts to a manufacturer, it may keep up to eight retail locations that were open then. It must sell or close any over eight. It cannot open new retail locations later, even if production falls below 20,000 barrels a year.
Rules for entertainment district drinking areas
An entertainment district may include a shared commons area that touches licensed premises and can include public or private rights-of-way. The commons must have safety steps like signs, lighting, and slower vehicle speeds near pedestrians. Drinking in the commons is allowed only during on-premises sale hours and only when food service is available in the commons or by at least one licensee. People may not carry open alcohol or drink on any open street or highway, except to cross at a marked crosswalk.
