This bill expands where licensed businesses can sell and serve cannabis-infused beverages in Kentucky, adding bars, restaurants, fairs, and festivals to the permitted locations. It also creates a new type of supplemental drink license, sets a daily sampling limit of 12 ounces per person, and establishes labeling rules for shipped packages containing these beverages. Because it is marked as an emergency measure, it would take effect immediately upon becoming law. Who it may affect: businesses licensed to sell or distribute cannabis-infused beverages, restaurants and bars, event organizers at fairs and festivals, and adult consumers of cannabis-infused beverages.
