Alcoholic beverages-24 hour permit.

HB 219 allows alcohol manufacturers in Wyoming to obtain catering permits, which previously they could not hold under state law. This change directly affects alcohol manufacturers who want to sell beverages at off-site events like meetings, conventions, or private dinners. The bill amends existing laws to permit manufacturers with specific licenses to apply for these catering permits, while requiring sales to occur only at the event location (not off-premises) and excluding closed-container sales at nonprofit auctions. The key provision removes a prior restriction preventing manufacturers from holding catering permits, effective July 1, 2019.
