LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2272, as introduced, Wallis.
Licenses: sale of shochu and soju.
The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act provides for the issuance of various categories of alcoholic beverage licenses, including the imposition of fees, conditions, and restrictions in connection with the issuance of those licenses. The act provides that an on-sale license issued pursuant to the act that authorizes the sale of wine also authorizes the sale of soju and shochu, as specified.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that provision.
