An Act amending the act of April 12, 1951 (P.L.90, No.21), known as the Liquor Code, in licenses and regulations and liquor, alcohol and malt and brewed beverages, further providing for hours of operation relative to manufacturers, importing distributors and distributors; and, in distilleries, wineries, bonded warehouses, bailees for hire and transporters for hire, further providing for limited distilleries and distilleries.
Maddy summaryThis bill amends Pennsylvania's Liquor Code to update operating hours and permit requirements for alcohol manufacturers and distributors. Specifically, it allows manufacturers to operate until 2 a.m. on January 1st following December 31st and replaces the term "special occasion permit" with "manufacturer extended hours permit." The legislation also removes the phrase "on-premise" from several sections, broadening the scope of where these entities can conduct business. These changes directly affect liquor manufacturers, importing distributors, and bonded warehouses by clarifying their legal operating times and terminology.
