The legislation, then designated as House Bill 1283, contained provisions such as prohibiting breweries from selling beer on-premises unless the products were brewed and fermented entirely on site; prohibited contract brewing, which helps startup breweries gain their footing in the market; rolled back taproom hours of operation; and included language that required any additional 1,000 barrels—beyond the 500-barrel annual limit on taproom beer sales—be bought from wholesalers at a marked up cost. The bill, heavily amended after heavy criticism from stakeholders and the public, was eventually passed by the legislature.
