Senator Gardner introduced House Bill 17-1145, concerning authorization for amateur winemakers to enter wines in organized events. Under current law, amateur brewers and winemakers are exempt from liquor licensing requirements. Amateur brewers may participate in organized events, such as contests, tasting, or judgings, held at licensed premises, as long as portions do not exceed six ounces and are not sold, offered for sale, or made available for consumption by the general public. The bill allows amateur winemakers to also participate in organized events, provided the same portion and sale requirements are met. Senator Gardner provided a handout to the committee (Attachment B).
