AI Summary

This bill exempts the sale of beer and malt beverages from sales and use tax at the retail level. Specifically, the bill modifies existing tax law by removing language that previously excluded beer and malt beverages from the sales tax exemption for alcoholic beverages. This means that retail sales of beer and malt beverages would now be tax-free, potentially reducing the cost for consumers purchasing these beverages. The bill is straightforward and would take effect immediately upon passage, making it a simple change to the state's sales tax regulations regarding alcoholic beverage sales.
