House Bill No. by Representative Berault aims to regulate the shipping of alcoholic beverages from local distillers to consumers in Louisiana. The bill introduces new definitions for "distilling facility" and "premises," clarifying that a distilling facility is a licensed manufacturing distillery authorized to sell liquor for consumption, while "premises" refers to the building where alcoholic beverages with more than 6% alcohol content are sold, including any outside areas if applicable.

Additionally, the bill allows manufacturing distilleries that hold an in-state manufacturer's permit to use a wholesaler to transfer liquor to another distilling facility owned by the same manufacturer, under specific conditions. These conditions include the requirement that the transferring distillery must produce at least 4,000 gallons of liquor annually, the quantity transferred cannot exceed 50% of the receiving facility's production from the previous month, and all applicable state and local taxes must be remitted. The bill will take effect upon the governor's signature or after the designated time for gubernatorial action.
