MI SB0143

Amends the alcoholic beverage control law to add "mixed spirit drink manufacturer" and "outstate seller of mixed spirit drink" to provisions regulating gifts, loans, and assistance between alcohol vendors.

Allows manufacturers, wholesalers, and outstate sellers to provide advertising items promoting brands and prices, with restrictions that items must have no use or value beyond advertising except as specifically authorized.

Expands the list of allowable promotional items suppliers may provide to retailers, including spirits cold shot tap machines, sporting event tickets, and brand logoed merchandise displays (with value limit of $200 per item, maximum 3,500 square inches, must be unilluminated and returned after display).

Permits retailers to purchase and possess brand logoed barware (trays, coasters, napkins, shirts, hats, pitchers, drinkware, bar mats, buckets, bottle openers, stir rods, patio umbrellas) only from authorized sources with maintained receipts, and requires disclosure of purchases on license renewal applications.

Takes effect 90 days after enactment (August 23, 2021) and is contingent upon enactment of Senate Bills 141 and 144 of the 101st Legislature.
