I am reintroducing Senate Bill 360 from the 2023-24 session. This legislation amends the Liquor Code to allow club license holders to sell malt beverages for off-premises consumption.

Presently, the Liquor Code precludes a licensee holding a club license from selling malt or brewed beverages to customers for consumption off the licensed premises. Under the bill, a club licensee may not sell more than 192 fluid ounces in a single transaction. In addition, no sales of malt beverages can take place between 2 a.m. - 7 a.m. A licensee who is subject to a pending objection from the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB), or who has been suspended under the licensee compliance program, is not eligible to sell these beverages.

Co-sponsors of Senate Bill 360 were Senators Aument, Bartolotta, Phillips-Hill, Stefano and Yaw. I ask you to join me in co-sponsoring this legislation.
