Thisamendmentensuresthatout-of-statesmallbrewersareheldtothesamestandardsasin-statesmallbrewers and the out-of-state small brewers are given no additional advantages. It clarifies that small brewers must have a physical, in-state presence. Maintaining a physical presence is paramount in the interest of protecting the health, safety and welfare of Idaho citizens and for the establishment of an orderly marketplace. Such physical presence achieves unquestionable jurisdiction, provides immediate accountability for suppliers and provides the ability for regulators to remove bad actors and unsafe products from the market. Such physical presence allows for physical inspections, which are statutorily required by Idaho law including, but not limited to, the Idaho State Police, Division of Alcohol Beverage Control, the Idaho State Tax Commission, and the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare.
