AR HB1763

Allows Arkansas distillers and manufacturers to sell, deliver, or transport up to 15,000 nine-liter equivalent cases (35,667 gallons) of spirituous liquors per year directly to licensed retailers, establishing self-distribution authority.

Reorganizes and clarifies existing distillery permit provisions under Arkansas Code § 3-4-602(g) by renumbering subsections to eliminate conflicting language regarding export and retail sales activities.

Maintains distilleries' existing rights to sell complimentary samples on premises, operate retail sales in wet territories, and serve alcohol for on-premises consumption including beer, wine, and malt liquor.

Declares an emergency effective date due to substantial growth of Arkansas's distilling industry, finding the law amendment essential for public safety and consistent application of alcohol regulations.
