Amend the bill by striking out everything after the enacting clause and before the summary and inserting the following:
‘Sec. 1.  28-A MRSA §1051, sub-§9  is enacted to read:
 
9.  Malt liquor sales in standardized pints.    An on-premises retail licensee may not sell or offer for sale malt liquor in a container represented in any written form to patrons of the licensee as a pint, unless that container can hold at least 16 fluid ounces.’
 
SUMMARY
This amendment makes a technical change to the bill by placing it in the section of statute that applies to on-premises licensees specifically. It also clarifies that the requirement to have a container that holds 16 fluid ounces applies when the licensee represents in written form to patrons that the licensee sells malt liquor by the pint.
