BILL NUMBER:S5832 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the alcoholic beverage control law, in relation to brand or trade name labeling of alcoholic beverages Purpose: This bill would amend section 107-a of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law ("ABCL") to create an exemption from the brand label registration fee for distilled spirits produced in small batches, to modernize the standards used in approving brand labels, and to reduce the amount of information that brand owners and wholesalers must provide to the State Liquor Authority ("SLA") when applying for brand label approval.

This bill would combine those provisions into one coherent subdivision.
