1088	1088	13 transfer any inventory to and from the holder's retail
1089	1089	14 premises and shall allow the holder to purchase alcoholic

1098	1098	23 holder of a caterer retailer license has not transferred
1099	1099	24 alcoholic liquor from its caterer retailer premises to an

1115	1115	4 premises; and (iii) the unused, salable beer would likely
1116	1116	5 spoil if transferred to the caterer retailer's premises. A
1117	1117	6 caterer retailer license shall allow the holder to transfer
1118	1118	7 any inventory from any off-site location to its caterer
1119	1119	8 retailer premises at the conclusion of an off-site event or

1121	1121	10 inventory from any off-site location to its caterer retailer

1123	1123	12 the distributor or importing distributor issues bona fide
1124	1124	13 charges to the caterer retailer licensee for fuel, labor, and
1125	1125	14 delivery and the distributor or importing distributor collects
1126	1126	15 payment from the caterer retailer licensee prior to the
1127	1127	16 distributor or importing distributor transferring inventory to
1128	1128	17 the caterer retailer premises.
1129	1129	18 For purposes of this subsection (o), an "act of God" means
1130	1130	19 an unforeseeable event, such as a rain or snow storm, hail, a
1131	1131	20 flood, or a similar event, that is the sole cause of the
1132	1132	21 cancellation of an off-site, outdoor event.
1133	1133	22 (p) An auction liquor license shall allow the licensee to
1134	1134	23 sell and offer for sale at auction wine and spirits for use or

1152	1152	5 licensed retailer to transfer a portion of its alcoholic
1153	1153	6 liquor inventory from its retail licensed premises to the
1154	1154	7 premises specified in the license hereby created; to purchase
