HB 5910 Michigan House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Liquor: spirits; providing complimentary engraving of a bottle of spirits during a tasting event; allow. Amends sec. 1027 of 1998 PA 58 (MCL 436.2027).

This bill allows liquor retailers and manufacturers to offer complimentary engraving of spirits bottles to customers attending tasting events. It authorizes vendors to host up to three consumer sampling events per month at specially designated distributor locations, provided the vendor pays for the spirits and a licensed representative is present. The legislation sets specific rules for these events, such as limiting each consumer to three small servings and prohibiting any charge for the samples or the engraving. Additionally, the bill clarifies existing regulations regarding tastings for employees, home brewer competitions, and pre-approval sampling for products not yet sold in the state.
