Alcoholic beverages; small brewer license; purchase and sell spirits; effective date.

HB 1713 expands small brewer licenses in Oklahoma to allow license holders to purchase, sell, and serve spirits (like whiskey and vodka) in addition to beer and cider. This directly affects small breweries that currently only produce and sell beer/cider, enabling them to offer a wider range of alcoholic beverages. Key provisions include permitting the sale of spirits for on-premises consumption at breweries, allowing self-distribution of beer/cider to retail locations without distributors, and clarifying event sales (e.g., festivals) without needing separate venue permits. The bill takes effect November 1, 2025, and maintains existing rules like a 12-ounce daily sample limit for visitors.
