Modifies inspection and gauging fees imposed on gallons of spirituous liquors

HB 1477 modifies Missouri's fees for selling alcoholic beverages. It sets a $2.68 fee per gallon (or fraction) for hard liquor sales (like whiskey, gin, and rum), and a $0.30 fee per gallon for wine sales, with wine fees directed to the Agriculture Protection Fund. The bill requires sellers to pay these fees and imposes penalties, including felony charges, for selling liquor without paying the fees or violating container rules. It directly affects liquor manufacturers, distributors, and retailers who must collect and remit these fees.
