Iowa HF459 restricts the Department of Revenue's authority to delist native distilled spirits based solely on sales guidelines.
Iowa HF459 amends the state's alcohol regulations to limit the Department of Revenue's power to remove native distilled spirits from the list of approved products based solely on sales performance. The bill specifies that once a native distillery's spirits are listed and sold, the director cannot delist them merely for failing to meet sales targets. Native distilleries, defined as businesses with operating stills in the state, produce and manufacture these spirits, which can be purchased through a bailment system by the department and then sold to class "E" retail alcohol licensees.
