(A) It is unlawful for any person, directly or indirectly, on any pretense or by any device, to sell, barter, keep for sale or otherwise dispose of 3.2% malt liquor, as part of a commercial transaction, without a license therefor from the city. This section shall not apply to sales by manufacturers to wholesalers or to sales by wholesalers to a person holding a 3.2% malt liquor license from the city. Annual 3.2% malt liquor on-sale licenses may be issued only to drug stores, restaurants, hotels, bowling centers, clubs and establishments used exclusively for the sale of beer with the incidental sale of tobacco and soft drinks.
(B) The Council may authorize a holder of an on-sale 3.2% malt liquor license issued pursuant to division (A) above who is also licensed to sell wine at on-sale pursuant to M.S. § 340A.404, as it may be amended from time to time, to sell intoxicating malt liquors at on-sale without an additional license.
