462	462	1 for each year since its establishment; (3) its efforts to
463	463	2 establish distributor relationships; (4) that a
464	464	3 self-distribution exemption is necessary to facilitate the
465	465	4 marketing of its wine; and (5) that it will comply with the
466	466	5 liquor and revenue laws of the United States, this State,
467	467	6 and any other state where it is licensed.
468	468	7 (C) The State Commission shall approve the application
469	469	8 for a self-distribution exemption if such person: (1) is
470	470	9 in compliance with State revenue and liquor laws; (2) is

472	472	11 directly or indirectly more than 25,000 gallons of wine
473	473	12 per annum, 930,000 gallons of beer per annum, or 50,000

477	477	16 will not annually sell more than 5,000 gallons of its wine
478	478	17 to retail licensees.

481	481	20 wine in the previous 12 months and its anticipated
482	482	21 production and sales for the next 12 months. The State
483	483	22 Commission may fine, suspend, or revoke a
484	484	23 self-distribution exemption after a hearing if it finds
485	485	24 that the exemption holder has made a material

504	504	7 Public Act 95-634 or a bona fide investigation by duly
505	505	8 sworn law enforcement officials, the State Commission, or
506	506	9 its agents, the State Commission shall maintain the
507	507	10 production and sales information of a self-distribution
508	508	11 exemption holder as confidential and shall not release
509	509	12 such information to any person.
510	510	13 (F) The State Commission shall issue regulations
511	511	14 governing self-distribution exemptions consistent with
512	512	15 this Section and this Act.
513	513	16 (G) Nothing in this paragraph (17) shall prohibit a
514	514	17 self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or

516	516	19 licensed Illinois distributor.
517	517	20 (H) It is the intent of this paragraph (17) to promote
518	518	21 and continue orderly markets. The General Assembly finds
519	519	22 that, in order to preserve Illinois' regulatory
520	520	23 distribution system, it is necessary to create an
521	521	24 exception for smaller makers of wine as their wines are
522	522	25 frequently adjusted in varietals, mixes, vintages, and
523	523	26 taste to find and create market niches sometimes too small

536	536	3 and allow smaller makers of wine access to the marketplace
537	537	4 in order to develop a customer base without impairing the
538	538	5 integrity of the 3-tier system.
539	539	6 (18)(A) A class 1 brewer licensee, who must also be
540	540	7 either a licensed brewer or licensed non-resident dealer
541	541	8 and annually manufacture less than 930,000 gallons of
542	542	9 beer, may make application to the State Commission for a
543	543	10 self-distribution exemption to allow the sale of not more
544	544	11 than 232,500 gallons per year of the exemption holder's
545	545	12 beer to retail licensees and to brewers, class 1 brewers,
546	546	13 and class 2 brewers that, pursuant to subsection (e) of
547	547	14 Section 6-4 of this Act, sell beer, cider, mead, or any
548	548	15 combination thereof to non-licensees at their breweries.
549	549	16 (B) In the application, which shall be sworn under
550	550	17 penalty of perjury, the class 1 brewer licensee shall
551	551	18 state (1) the date it was established; (2) its volume of
552	552	19 beer manufactured and sold for each year since its
553	553	20 establishment; (3) its efforts to establish distributor
554	554	21 relationships; (4) that a self-distribution exemption is
555	555	22 necessary to facilitate the marketing of its beer; and (5)
556	556	23 that it will comply with the alcoholic beverage and
557	557	24 revenue laws of the United States, this State, and any
558	558	25 other state where it is licensed.

573	573	4 if the class 1 brewer licensee: (1) is in compliance with
574	574	5 the State, revenue, and alcoholic beverage laws; (2) is
575	575	6 not a member of any affiliated group that manufactures,
576	576	7 directly or indirectly, more than 930,000 gallons of beer
577	577	8 per annum, 25,000 gallons of wine per annum, or 50,000
578	578	9 gallons of spirits per annum; (3) shall not annually
579	579	10 manufacture for sale more than 930,000 gallons of beer,
580	580	11 25,000 gallons of wine, or 50,000 gallons of spirits; (4)
581	581	12 shall not annually sell more than 232,500 gallons of its
582	582	13 beer to retail licensees and class 3 brewers and to
583	583	14 brewers, class 1 brewers, and class 2 brewers that,
584	584	15 pursuant to subsection (e) of Section 6-4 of this Act,
585	585	16 sell beer, cider, mead, or any combination thereof to
586	586	17 non-licensees at their breweries; and (5) has relinquished
587	587	18 any brew pub license held by the licensee, including any
588	588	19 ownership interest it held in the licensed brew pub.
589	589	20 (D) A self-distribution exemption holder shall
590	590	21 annually certify to the State Commission its manufacture
591	591	22 of beer during the previous 12 months and its anticipated
592	592	23 manufacture and sales of beer for the next 12 months. The
593	593	24 State Commission may fine, suspend, or revoke a

613	613	8 (E) The State Commission shall issue rules and
614	614	9 regulations governing self-distribution exemptions
615	615	10 consistent with this Act.
616	616	11 (F) Nothing in this paragraph (18) shall prohibit a
617	617	12 self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or
618	618	13 simultaneously having a distribution agreement with a
619	619	14 licensed Illinois importing distributor or a distributor.
620	620	15 If a self-distribution exemption holder enters into a
621	621	16 distribution agreement and has assigned distribution
622	622	17 rights to an importing distributor or distributor, then
623	623	18 the self-distribution exemption holder's distribution
624	624	19 rights in the assigned territories shall cease in a
625	625	20 reasonable time not to exceed 60 days.

718	718	5 exception for smaller manufacturers in order to afford and
719	719	6 allow such smaller manufacturers of spirits access to the
720	720	7 marketplace in order to develop a customer base without

727	727	14 than 6,200 gallons of beer from each in-state or

729	729	16 exceed 18,600 gallons annually in the aggregate, that is
730	730	17 manufactured at a wholly owned class 3 brewer's in-state

756	756	7 (5) that it will comply with the alcoholic
757	757	8 beverage and revenue laws of the United States, this
758	758	9 State, and any other state where it is licensed.

790	790	5 of beer during the previous 12 months and its anticipated

1987	1987	15 of snacks as the primary meal, either on or off-site whether

1990	1990	18 transfer any inventory to and from the holder's retail
1991	1991	19 premises and shall allow the holder to purchase alcoholic

2010	2010	2 holder of a caterer retailer license has not transferred
2011	2011	3 alcoholic liquor from its caterer retailer premises to an
2012	2012	4 off-site location; (ii) the distributor or importing
2013	2013	5 distributor offers the credit or refund for the unused,
2014	2014	6 salable beer that it delivered to the off-site premises and
2015	2015	7 not for any unused, salable beer that the distributor or
2016	2016	8 importing distributor delivered to the caterer retailer's
2017	2017	9 premises; and (iii) the unused, salable beer would likely
2018	2018	10 spoil if transferred to the caterer retailer's premises. A
2019	2019	11 caterer retailer license shall allow the holder to transfer
2020	2020	12 any inventory from any off-site location to its caterer
2021	2021	13 retailer premises at the conclusion of an off-site event or

2023	2023	15 inventory from any off-site location to its caterer retailer
2024	2024	16 premises at the conclusion of an off-site event, provided that
2025	2025	17 the distributor or importing distributor issues bona fide
2026	2026	18 charges to the caterer retailer licensee for fuel, labor, and

2029	2029	21 distributor or importing distributor transferring inventory to
2030	2030	22 the caterer retailer premises.
2031	2031	23 For purposes of this subsection (o), an "act of God" means
2032	2032	24 an unforeseeable event, such as a rain or snow storm, hail, a
2033	2033	25 flood, or a similar event, that is the sole cause of the

2125	2125	9 applicant for the license must provide the Commission with a
2126	2126	10 true copy of its current license in any state in which it is

2128	2128	12 shipper's license must also complete an application form that
2129	2129	13 provides any other information the Commission deems necessary.
2130	2130	14 The application form shall include all addresses from which

2164	2164	12 perjury, as part of the winery shipper's license application
2165	2165	13 or renewal, that he or she only ships wine, either directly or

3168	3168	3 (a) It is the purpose and intent of this Section:
3169	3169	4 (1) to authorize direct shipment of spirits by an
3170	3170	5 out-of-state distiller on the same basis permitted an
3171	3171	6 in-state distiller, an in-state craft distiller, an
3172	3172	7 in-state class 1 craft distiller, an in-state class 2
3173	3173	8 craft distiller, and an in-state class 3 craft distiller
3174	3174	9 pursuant to the authority of the State under the
3175	3175	10 provisions of Section 2 of the Twenty-First Amendment to
3176	3176	11 the United States Constitution and in conformance with the
3177	3177	12 United States Supreme Court decision decided on May 16,
3178	3178	13 2005 in Granholm v. Heald;
3179	3179	14 (2) to reaffirm that the General Assembly's findings
3180	3180	15 and declarations that selling alcoholic liquor through
3181	3181	16 various direct marketing means, such as catalogs,
3182	3182	17 newspapers, mailings, and the Internet, directly to
3183	3183	18 consumers of this State poses a serious threat to the
3184	3184	19 State's efforts to further temperance and prevent youth
3185	3185	20 from accessing alcoholic liquor and the expansion of youth
3186	3186	21 access to additional types of alcoholic liquors;
3187	3187	22 (3) to maintain the State's broad powers granted by
3188	3188	23 Section 2 of the Twenty-First Amendment to the United
3189	3189	24 States Constitution to control the importation or sale of
3190	3190	25 alcoholic liquor and its right to structure its alcoholic

3201	3201	1 liquor distribution system;
3202	3202	2 (4) to ensure that the General Assembly, by
3203	3203	3 authorizing limited direct shipment of spirits to meet the
3204	3204	4 directives of the United States Supreme Court, does not
3205	3205	5 intend to impair or modify the State's distribution of
3206	3206	6 spirits through distributors or importing distributors,
3207	3207	7 but only to permit limited shipment of spirits for
3208	3208	8 personal use; and
3209	3209	9 (5) to provide that if a court of competent
3210	3210	10 jurisdiction declares or finds that this Section, which is
3211	3211	11 enacted to conform Illinois law to the United States
3212	3212	12 Supreme Court decision, is invalid or unconstitutional,
3213	3213	13 the Illinois General Assembly at its earliest general
3214	3214	14 session shall conduct hearings and study methods to
3215	3215	15 conform to any directive or order of the court consistent
3216	3216	16 with the temperance and revenue collection purposes of
3217	3217	17 this Act.
3218	3218	18 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a
3219	3219	19 distillery shipper's licensee may ship, for personal use and
3220	3220	20 not for resale, not more than 12 cases of spirits per year to
3221	3221	21 any resident of this State who is 21 years of age or older.
3222	3222	22 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, sale and
3223	3223	23 shipment by a distillery shipper's licensee pursuant to this
3224	3224	24 Section shall be deemed to constitute a sale in this State.
3225	3225	25 (d) The shipping container of any spirit shipped under

3239	3239	3 MUST BE SHOWN BEFORE DELIVERY.". This warning must be
3240	3240	4 prominently displayed on the packaging. A licensee shall
3241	3241	5 require the transporter or common carrier that delivers the
3242	3242	6 spirits to obtain the signature of a person 21 years of age or
3243	3243	7 older at the delivery address at the time of delivery. At the
3244	3244	8 expense of the licensee, the licensee shall receive a delivery
3245	3245	9 confirmation from the express company, common carrier, or
3246	3246	10 contract carrier indicating the location of the delivery, time
3247	3247	11 of delivery, and the name and signature of the individual 21
3248	3248	12 years of age or older who accepts delivery. The State
3249	3249	13 Commission may design and create a label or approve a label
3250	3250	14 that must be affixed to the shipping container by the
3251	3251	15 licensee.

3256	3256	20 distributors, but it is the intent of this Section to only
3257	3257	21 permit shipments of spirits for personal use.
