Section 14.05(c) goes away, starting September 1, 2027.
The bill repeals one subsection, Section 14.05(c), of the Alcoholic Beverage Code's rules on distillery sales straight to customers. It touches businesses that hold a distiller's and rectifier's permit and the people who buy spirits from them. The bill does not reprint the repealed subsection, so the change on the ground is whatever limit that subsection now places on those sales, starting September 1, 2027.
