HB 622 Alabama House · 2026 Regular Session

City of Jemison; draft beer, authorization to sell amended

This bill allows the City of Jemison to authorize the sale of draft beer in growlers, kegs, or similar containers for off-premises consumption by licensed retailers. It directly affects the Jemison City Council, which would need to pass a resolution to implement this change, and local businesses holding retail liquor licenses. The legislation would take effect immediately upon passage, enabling the city to permit draft beer sales in containers typically used for takeout or delivery. This change expands how draft beer can be sold within the city limits beyond traditional on-premises consumption.
