| Bill | LIQUOR-CRAFT DISTILLERS | Amends the Liquor Control Act of 1934. Provides that a craft distiller license allows the manufacture of up to 100,000 gallons (instead of 35,000 gallons) of spirits by distillation per year and the storage of those spirits. Provides that a craft distiller license holder may store those spirits at a non-contiguous licensed location, but at no time shall a craft distiller license holder, or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, or any officer, associate, member, partner, representative, employee, agent, or shareholder of that craft distiller license holder directly or indirectly produce in the aggregate more than 100,000 gallons of spirits per year. Requires a craft distiller to affirm in its application that it does not produce more than 100,000 gallons of distilled spirits annually and that it does not sell more than 2,500 gallons of spirits to non-licensees. Prohibits craft distillers from being affiliated with directly or indirectly any other alcoholic liquor manufacturer licensed by any licensing authority. Prohibits distributors, importing distributors, and retailers from being licensed as a craft distiller. Amends the Video Gaming Act. In the definition of "licensed establishment", provides that "licensed establishment" does not include the premises of any manufacturer's licensee, wine maker's premises licensee, or brew pub licensee and adds a cross-reference to a provision in the Liquor Control Act of 1934 that describes a retailer's license.
