Eliminating the per transaction limit for wine and spirit sales.

SB 5371 eliminates a 24-liter limit on single transactions for wine and spirit sales by retailers holding combination spirits, beer, and wine licenses. This change directly affects stores licensed to sell spirits, wine, and beer for off-premises consumption, allowing them to sell larger volumes in one transaction without restriction. The bill amends Washington’s liquor code (RCW 66.24.035) to remove the specific volume cap previously required for such sales. Other licensing requirements, like the $316 annual fee and 10,000-square-foot store space minimum, remain unchanged. The bill simplifies transaction rules for eligible retailers without altering other operational or tax provisions.
