   ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 29th day of 2009, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by Petitioner, is:

Did the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board improperly apply its “interior connection” and “other business” rules so as to circumvent the fundamental Liquor Code rules establishing the venues at which beer may be sold in Pennsylvania and thereby authorize a supermarket that has a “restaurant” area within it to sell beer, primarily in six and twelve packs and primarily for take-out consumption, to its supermarket customers?
