The bill amends section 4301.13 of the Revised Code to permit retail liquor permit holders to offer discounts on dealcoholized wine under specific conditions. It introduces definitions for "case" and "dealcoholized beverage," clarifying that a "case" consists of six to twelve bottles of wine, and a "dealcoholized beverage" is defined as wine with less than 0.5% alcohol by volume. The bill allows retail permit holders to provide a ten percent discount on the retail sale price for each bottle of dealcoholized wine when purchased as part of a transaction that includes a case of regular wine.

Additionally, the bill removes previous language regarding the definition of "case" and its specifications. It emphasizes that the liquor control commission can set minimum markups and prices for bottled wine, while also allowing the specified discounts for both regular and dealcoholized wine, thereby promoting sales and consumer access to these products.
