                                 A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
    1-1                                AN ACT
    1-2  relating to authorized activities of the holder of a brewer's
    1-3  permit.
    1-4        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
    1-5        SECTION 1.  Section 12.01, Alcoholic Beverage Code, is
    1-6  amended to read as follows:
    1-7        Sec. 12.01.  AUTHORIZED ACTIVITIES.  The holder of a brewer's
    1-8  permit may:
    1-9              (1)  manufacture, bottle, package, and label malt
   1-10  liquor;
   1-11              (2)  import ale and malt liquor acquired from a holder
   1-12  of a nonresident brewer's permit; <and>
   1-13              (3)  sell the ale and malt liquor only to wholesale
   1-14  permit holders in this state or to qualified persons outside the
   1-15  state; and
   1-16              (4)  dispense ale and malt liquor for consumption on
   1-17  the premises.
   1-18        SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-19  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-20  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-21  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-22  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
   1-23  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
   1-24  passage, and it is so enacted.
