Subject: RE: Craft Beer in Iowa


Ray,
 
Basic idea is there is a disconnect between the rules for wine and the rules for beer in Iowa. I don't have all the details at this point, but the basic definition of "Beer" as defined in Iowa Administrative Code, Section 123.3 (Definitions) subsection 7 is wrong:

		 7. "Beer" means any liquid capable of being used for beverage purposes made by the fermentation of an infusion in potable water of barley, malt, and hops, with or without unmalted grains or decorticated and degerminated grains or made by the fermentation of or by distillation of the fermented products of fruit, fruit extracts, or other agricultural products, containing more than one-half of one percent of alcohol by volume but not more than five percent of alcohol by weight but not including mixed drinks or cocktails mixed on the premises.

The phrase "but not more than five percent of alcohol by weight" is irrelevant to beer. Various styles of beer are often more than 5% - Barley Wine, Russian Imperial Stout, various Belgian ales, etc. Some styles can exceed 20% (Samuel Adams Millennium & Utopia, eisbock, Dogfish Head World Wide Stout, etc.). Folks that are going to consume higher gravity beers are not kids - a bottle of Millennium, for example, costs ~$120.00.
 
It appears that subsection 3 will also need to be adjusted:

		CURRENT: 5. "Alcoholic liquor" or "intoxicating liquor" means the varieties of liquor defined in subsections 3 and 33 which contain more than five percent of alcohol by weight, beverages made as described in subsection 7 which beverages contain more than five percent of alcohol by weight but which are not wine as defined in subsection 37, and every other liquid or solid, patented or not, containing spirits and every beverage obtained by the process described in subsection 37 containing more than seventeen percent alcohol by weight or twenty-one and twenty-five hundredths percent of alcohol by volume, and susceptible of being consumed by a human being, for beverage purposes. Alcohol manufactured in this state for use as fuel pursuant to an experimental distilled spirits plant permit or its equivalent issued by the federal bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms is not an "alcoholic liquor" .
		 
		SUGGESTED 5. "Alcoholic liquor" or "intoxicating liquor" means the varieties of liquor defined in subsections 3 and 33 which contain more than five percent of alcohol by weight, beverages made as described in subsection 7 which beverages contain more than five percent of alcohol by weight but which are not wine as defined in subsection 37, and every other liquid or solid, patented or not, containing spirits and every beverage obtained by the process described in subsections 7 or 37 containing more than seventeen percent alcohol by weight or twenty-one and twenty-five hundredths percent of alcohol by volume, and susceptible of being consumed by a human being, for beverage purposes. Alcohol manufactured in this state for use as fuel pursuant to an experimental distilled spirits plant permit or its equivalent issued by the federal bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms is not an "alcoholic liquor" .

I'm not sure what else would need to be changed, but this is a start, and put beer and wine on parity with each other with regard to proof, etc.
 
Best,

Joe, 
No, it does not need to be in complete detail. I just need the basics, and then we can change/add later. If I could even get it by this afternoon, that would be great.

Does the proposal have to be in complete detail or is there a way to do a placeholder while the details are worked out?

	Chapter 123 of the Iowa Code deals with Alcoholic Beverage Control.
	 
	I'm no expert on this subject, but just giving the code a quick perusal it seems to me the problem is that the state has a monopoly on 'alcoholic liquor' as defined in section 123.3. Amending section 123.3 definitions as shown below would seem to do most of what we want. Obviosly this needs to be done by someone versed in the law, but I hadn't looked at the law in a couple of years.
	 
	 
	5. "Alcoholic liquor" or "intoxicating liquor" means the varieties of liquor defined in subsections 3 and 33 which contain more than five percent of alcohol by weight, beverages made as described in subsection 7 which beverages contain more than five fifteen percent of alcohol by weight but which are not wine as defined in subsection 37, and every other liquid or solid, patented or not, containing spirits and every beverage obtained by the process described in subsection 37 containing more than seventeen percent alcohol by weight or twenty-one and twenty-five hundredths percent of alcohol by volume, and susceptible of being consumed by a human being, for beverage purposes. Alcohol manufactured in this state for use as fuel pursuant to an experimental distilled spirits plant permit or its equivalent issued by the federal bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms is not an "alcoholic liquor" . 

	 

	7. "Beer" means any liquid capable of being used for beverage purposes made by the fermentation of an infusion in potable water of barley, malt, and hops, with or without unmalted grains or decorticated and degerminated grains or made by the fermentation of or by distillation of the fermented products of fruit, fruit extracts, or other agricultural products, containing more than one-half of one percent of alcohol by volume but not more than five fifteen percent of alcohol by weight but not including mixed drinks or cocktails mixed on the premises.

			Hey everyone, great thread and this is something the Iowa Brewers Guild is very interested in as well. Along with all the other justifications for this legislation, please add that the local (small business) brewpubs and microbreweries are at a competitive disadvantage in that out of state brewers can bring their high alcohol beers into the state, granted through the state warehouse, but we can't.

			 

			I've been told many times that this push should come from concerned "citizens" not interest holding brewers, so please move forward with as much noise as you can on this issue.

			I think the people you really need to get behind this are the retailers.  Remember, it isn't illegal to sell these beers in Iowa now - it is just inconvenient.  Our tax structure is higher, but overall it isn't a huge difference if you find a retailer willing to go through the hassle.  You can find Bigfoot at Wine and Spirits Gallery, John's and Cyclone for around $10.99/six pack.  This isn't a cheap beer anywhere.  I think I gave $9.99/six pack at Gomers.   Flying Dog specialties (Old Scratch is 11.6% ABV) are around, too.  So you need to get the people that have the most potential monetary gain to be for it.  Get someone with deep pockets that have a chance to make some money interested (the Hy Vee's of the state) and you will have a much better shot at getting your argument heard.

			From what I understand, Ray will have his legislative assistants do some digging on states that have recently passed these laws to help him draft the language, so no worries there.  As to your other comment, I think a definite 'yes'.  If/when this placeholder comes to pass, we should pass the word as the more folks rattling the cage the better.

			All good comments.  This is very encouraging.

			 

			I think North Carolina lifted their limit about two years ago.  Would it be helpful for Mr. Zirkelbach to have a copy of their proposed legislation as a template?  Just a thought. (I don't have a copy, but a copy could probably be found somewhere on the internet).

			 

			Also, should we get the "placeholder" would it make sense to rally the troops (other homebrew clubs and the Iowa Brewer's Guild) around the state to encourage them to write their state congressman?

			This session is scheduled to be short & sweet, being an even numbered year --- they want to wrap up early and get home for campaigning. This session there will be little stomach for tackling tough or controversial issues. The coffers are full, the governor already wants to spend more than he has and the legislature will likely just slap down some of his condition of the state proposals. 

			 

			The one down side to proposing this now is that in an election year MADD & the other neo-prohibitionists will likely glom onto any proposal as making the highways more dangerous and encouraging drunk driving. This will be an easy thing to twist in an attach ad prior to election. On the plus side few seats in the house are actually contested, so it doesn't matter so much. I'm game for any chance to get it on the agenda.

			 

			Also, expect the numnuts at ABC to claim there will be a loss of revenue due to decreasing taxation of the high alc beers. Don't forget to stress to your legislators that we all have a file somewhere on our computers with the best beer stores in Omaha, the Twin Cities, Chicago, St. Louis, KC.... so that we can load up on these beers everytime we cross the state line.

					Hello All,

					 

					Just wanted to let you know that a friend of mine whom is a legislative consultant introduced me to Iowa District 31 Representative Ray Zirkelbach 3 weeks ago over a couple of beers at the El Bait Shop.  Well, turns out that Mr. Zirkelbach is a "beer enthusiast" and he called my friend again today and wants to put together a "placeholder" piece of legislation then draft some more specific language over the course of the next few weeks to change Iowa's 5% Law. 

					 

					Anyway, I imagine he will also be contacting Mike England on this issue as Mike is our expert in this area.

					 

					Not sure what will come of this, but it can't hurt.  Ray is the chair of one committee in the House so he does have a little pull.  I'll keep you posted on how this proceeds if it indeed goes anywhere.

					 

					Later,

					Brian
