Minnesota SF5295 amends liquor laws to define limited malt liquor and food retailers, and authorizes off-sale limited malt liquor licenses for food.
Minnesota SF5295 amends Minnesota Statutes to redefine "limited malt liquor" as malt liquor containing between 0.5% and 15% alcohol by weight. It also defines "food retailer" as a self-service establishment primarily selling food items. The bill authorizes counties and cities to issue off-sale limited malt liquor licenses to food retailers in unorganized or unincorporated areas, with commissioner approval. It exempts certain licensed sellers of intoxicating liquor from needing an additional off-sale limited malt liquor license.
