Dorchester County - Alcoholic Beverages - Beer, Wine, and Liquor Tasting License

HB 569 allows businesses in Dorchester County with existing Class A alcohol licenses to offer limited tastings of liquor (in addition to beer and wine) under specific rules. It directly affects Dorchester County establishments licensed to sell beer or wine, enabling them to provide small, free liquor samples on their premises. Key provisions include strict quantity limits (max 0.5 ounces per liquor sample, 1.5 ounces total daily), requiring tastings to be free and consumed on-site, and mandating 7-day written notice before events. The bill establishes two license fee tiers ($150 for up to 15 tastings yearly, $250 for up to 30) and requires proper disposal of leftover tasting liquor.
