Alcoholic beverages: returns.

Summary
Under the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, a seller may accept the return of beer from a retailer only if the beer is returned in exchange for the identical quantity and brand of beer. An exception to that provision permits a seller to accept the return of beer from a seasonal or temporary licensee, as specified. This bill would expand that exception to provide that an alcoholic beverage licensee may accept the return of unsold and unopened beer from organizations that obtain a particular license, as specified.
