§ 251.75. CONTINUANCE OF OPERATION AS BREWER.

Official statutory text

Notwithstanding any other provision of this code, if the sale of malt beverages is prohibited in an area by a local option election, a holder of a brewer's license that was issued prior to the election may not be denied an original or renewal brewer's license for the same location on the ground that the local option status of the area prohibits the sale of malt beverages. Except for the right to sell malt beverages contrary to the local option status of the area, the licensee may engage in all activities authorized by the license, including the brewing, possessing, storing, and packaging of malt beverages, and transporting the malt beverages to an area where the sale of malt beverages is legal. The licensee may deliver malt beverages at the licensee's premises to a purchaser from outside the state, an authorized carrier, or distributor. The purchaser, carrier, or distributor may not receive the malt beverages for transportation unless there has first been an order, acceptance, and payment or legal satisfaction of payment in an area where the sale of malt beverages is legal.
