Relating to the sale of wine and malt beverages by certain alcoholic beverage manufacturers at a restaurant operated by the manufacturer.

HB 1301 creates a new "wine, malt beverage, and food permit" allowing wineries and breweries that operate restaurants on their own premises to sell their own wine and malt beverages for on-site consumption. The bill requires these businesses to always offer food when serving alcohol, maintain detailed sales records separating alcohol, food, and other items, and provide specific documentation like menus, equipment lists, and floor plans to the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission. It directly affects manufacturers (wineries and brewers) operating restaurants on their licensed premises, enabling them to sell their products in-house without needing a separate retail license. The permit becomes available starting September 1, 2025, after the commission adopts implementing rules.
