Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: To revise this section, which establishes
				  procedures for storage and transfer from a central warehouse by multiple
				  licensed intoxicating liquor licensees, to reflect the elimination of Chapter
				  312, RSMo, regulating nonintoxicating beer. The division's name will be changed
				  to Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control in all applicable
				  sections.
(1) This regulation
				applies to all persons or entities who own and operate more than one (1)
				premises licensed to sell intoxicating liquor at retail.
(2) Any person or entity set forth in section
				(1), with the permission of the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control, may
				designate one (1) or more places as a central warehouse to which intoxicating
				liquors ordered and purchased by a person or entity from licensed wholesalers
				may be delivered by licensed wholesalers and at which intoxicating liquors so
				owned by a person or entity may be stored.
(3) Any person or entity set forth in section
				(1) owning and storing intoxicating liquors in a central warehouse as provided
				in section (1) may transfer all or any part of the intoxicating liquors so
				stored from the central warehouse to any premises licensed to sell intoxicating
				liquors at retail which is owned and operated by the same person or entity and
				which is located in the same county in which the central warehouse is located,
				or is located in a county adjoining and contiguous to the county in which the
				central warehouse is located, but not otherwise; except that private brands of
				intoxicating liquor owned and sold exclusively by only one (1) person or entity
				as set forth in section (1), and brands not privately owned but sold
				exclusively by only one (1) person or entity may be transferred from the
				warehouse to any licensed premises in the state owned by a person or entity,
				who is the exclusive retail dealer of the brand; provided, however, that malt
				liquor is not transferred from the central warehouse to another licensed
				premises unless the licensed premises is located in the same designated
				geographic area of the wholesaler from whom the malt liquor was purchased. The
				City of St. Louis is deemed to be a county for the purposes of this
				regulation.
(4) Any person or
				entity set forth in section (1) desiring to transfer intoxicating liquor from a
				premises licensed to sell intoxicating liquors at retail-owned and controlled
				by a person or entity to another premises so licensed and owned and controlled
				by the same person or entity, should first notify the supervisor of alcohol and
				tobacco control in writing describing the type, brand, size containers, and
				amount of intoxicating liquors to be so transferred, the license numbers of the
				premises from which and to which the transfer is to be made, and the true
				reason for the transfer and no transfer may be made until the supervisor of
				alcohol and tobacco control has assented to the transfer or until three (3)
				full days (not counting Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays) has elapsed after the
				receipt of the notice by the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control during
				which time the supervisor did not refuse the transfer.
