Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the alcoholic beverage control law, in relation to the definition of New York state labelled beer

AI Summary

This bill amends the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law to redefine "New York state labelled beer" as beer made with at least sixty percent, by weight, of hops and other ingredients (excluding water) grown in New York state, a change from previous tiered requirements that gradually increased the percentage of New York-grown ingredients. It also modifies the regulations for licensed farm breweries, allowing them to manufacture and sell beer other than New York state labelled beer, provided that the total aggregate of hops and other ingredients (excluding water) used in all their brewing meets the new sixty percent New York-grown threshold.
