To allow small distillers to keep more of the profits on liquor they make if 40 percent of the grain they use is grown in Michigan. Under current law the state is the sole statewide wholesaler of all distilled liquor, and imposes uniform statewide prices that include markups that of between 51 percent and 65 percent. The bill would turn over half that markup to small distillers who qualify. See Senate Bill 579.
