Massachusetts H328 amends laws to allow food stores to sell wines and malt beverages, with specific licensing and operational requirements.

Massachusetts H328 amends existing laws to authorize food stores to sell wines and malt beverages, provided they meet certain conditions. The bill allows local licensing authorities to issue food store licenses for the sale of these beverages, subject to specific criteria such as the dedication of a certain percentage of interior selling area and the adoption of age verification and employee training policies. It also outlines the fees associated with the issuance, transfer, or renewal of these licenses and sets limits on the number of licenses that can be held by a single applicant.
