PRESIDENT’S PERSPECTIVE W

elcome to 2021’s first edition of On Premise.

Although 2020 was one of the hardest years I can remember in this industry, it has been my honor to serve all 5,000 members of the TLW over the past few years. It has been tough for our members — from our 10-stool mom-andpop bars all the way up to our huge resorts.

Through all of the chaos, however, we at the TLW have worked day and night to make sure that our members have been informed on the issues facing them. We have fought the good fight on our members’ behalf at every turn. We will keep on looking out for you as this new year progresses as we know we are not out of the woods yet. That’s why membership dues to this organization are the best investment anyone in this industry can make.

The TLW is an organization that I believe in. I think being a member is a necessity for anyone working in the beverage alcohol industry. I am very proud of this association and what we do. I strongly believe that, without the TLW having our backs, the Wisconsin hospitality industry would not exist and prosper as it does today.

Over the years, this organization has made great advances in helping to shape and pass legislation that improves the lives of the independent mom-and-pop business owner, and we will continue to fight for the welfare of our members in the years to come. Those who would propose and pass laws that can harm your business and make it harder for you to be successful will not rest, and neither will the TLW. We are determined to do our best for you — our members. We will continue to monitor and fight against detrimental influences to your business, and promote legislation that will add value to your business and bottom line.

On Premise, our association’s bimonthly publication, is included in your membership. Over the next year, you will be

TLW HEADQUARTERS

As I travel around the state, I look forward to stopping at our members’ establishments for a cool beverage and great food. able to read about the issues that affect our businesses and industry through regular columns by our executive director, government affairs director and the executive director of American Beverage Licensees (ABL), our national association based in Washington, D.C. (As a TLW member, you are automatically enrolled as a member of ABL — another benefit the association provides.) The magazine also presents articles about our local leagues and affiliate members, as well as feature stories on hot topics that directly impact our members.

As I travel around the state, I look forward to stopping at our members’ establishments for a cool beverage and great food.

Using our TLW app, I hope to see as many of you as I can over the next year. Please patronize our other members as you travel the state, too. While you do, spread the word about the huge benefits of being a TLW member. And don’t forget to take advantage of some of the perks and special pricing offered by some of our affiliate members.

I am proud to say I am a member of the TLW and proud to be your president. I hope to see you at your place of business as I work my way around the state.

Salute!

Chris Marsicano President

The league provides its members with services, such as legislative and governmental relations, legal information and educational services, and promotes the industry on behalf of its membership.

CODE OF ETHICS • The TLW believes in taking good care of our customers and protecting against the effects of alcohol abuse. We want our customers to have a good time and we are interested in their well-being.

• We will not knowingly serve an underage person not accompanied by a parent or a legal guardian, and will check age identification when in doubt. We ask for your cooperation.

• We reserve the right to refuse service to persons we believe are intoxicated. Friends don’t let friends drive intoxicated. Let’s be friends.

• We will not encourage or permit alcohol consumption contests on our premises.

• We want you to get home safely. If you need a ride, we will try to arrange safe transportation home. We hope you will consider doing the same for your friends.

Because your customers have expectations for what you serve, we hold your chicken to the highest standards.

Whether you add your culinary touch or simply heat and serve, you’ll have a team of experts with over 95 years of experience working to make chicken that performs exactly how you need it to.

That includes menu staples like fillets, tenders, and wings, plus specialty items like chicken burgers and breakfast sausage. Create your menu with a rep who knows all there is about chicken at www.brakebush.com or call 1-800-933-2121.

• We will keep ourselves informed, and encourage all of our customers to help us enforce the alcohol beverage laws, practice responsible drinking and demonstrate good citizenship.

The Best Menus Are Made together.

Good People. Great Chicken.

INDUSTRY EDUCATION GETTING AN EDUCATION BARTENDER COURSES Online Bartending Training – TIPS Training The TIPS on-premise training course is an online program designed to teach those who sell and serve alcohol ways to prevent intoxication, drunk driving and underage drinking. This two- to three-hour online course addresses concerns specific to restaurants, hotels, bars, nightclubs, banquets, private parties and other on-premise liquor license holders where alcohol is served by the drink. eTIPS certification is valid for three years.

Online Bartender Course – 360 Training With 360training.com, you can take your Bartending Certification training and exam anytime and anywhere you have an internet connection. The Wisconsin Responsible Beverage Server Training is a four-hour interactive e-learning course that teaches students how to responsibly sell and serve alcoholic beverages in the state of Wisconsin. This certification is good for three years.

For more information about both courses, visit tlw.org/education/bartenders.

RESTAURANT MANAGERS CERTIFICATION The National Registry of Food Safety Professionals, approved by the Health and Family Services (HFS) Department, approves our instructors and provides the TLW with state-approved examinations for our classes.

We provide certification and education classes that are available at several locations throughout the state. Our classes are valid for five years.

For more information, see Page 35 about the Food Manager Certification Class and the Small Operators Training Permit offered by the TLW, or visit tlw.org/education/restaurant-managers-certification-class.

ONLINE FOOD MANAGER COURSES The Tavern League promotes food manager training through the TAP Series. These are online courses that are required to receive the Food Safety Manager’s License or the Small Operator Permit.

Once you complete the training for the Food Safety Manager’s License, you must register to take an exam. You can schedule one by visiting tlwstore.org or calling (800) 445-9221. To qualify for the Small Operator Permit online course, you must not be expired on your current license. Once you complete the Small Operator Class online, you must print out the permit of completion to post at your establishment.

For more information and registration, visit tlw.org/education/on-line-food-managers-training-only.

LOCAL LEAGUE BUILDING BLOCKS Creating a framework for how to properly organize and manage league functions is essential to building a strong local league. Grant/Iowa County Tavern League created a model to follow with guidelines for conducting league meetings, implementing state bylaws, following rules pertaining to league officers, strategizing for committee assignments, handling audits and reimbursements, determining a workable calendar for your league, as well as other operational policies. To review Grant/Iowa County’s presentation as well as the TLW’s guidelines, visit tlw.org/education/league-leaders.

AMERICAN BEVERAGE INSTITUTE (ABI) HOTLINE A beverage licensee is an individual or entity that has been issued a license from a state authority for the purposes of selling beer, wine and/or spirits to consumers of legal drinking age. ABI is one of the leading organizations dedicated to the protection of responsible on-premise consumption of adult beverages and it’s leading the fight against lowering the blood-alcohol arrest level for driving to 0.05. For more information, visit tlw.org/education/ ABI-hotline or abionline.org.

AMERICAN BEVERAGE LICENSEES (ABL) As a TLW member, you are also a member of ABL, the preeminent national trade association for retail beverage alcohol license holders across the United States.

Within the three-tier system of producers, distributors and retailers, beverage licensees are the last to handle beverage alcohol products before they reach the consumer and reflect a lasting image of the industry to the public. Most ABL members, like you, are locally owned bars, restaurants or stores that support their communities. Visit tlw.org/ education/american-beverage-licensing or ablusa.org for more information.

FOOD MANAGER CERTIFICATION

T

he Wisconsin Department of Health has mandated that at least one person in each establishment must be certified by the state within 90 days of opening a new or existing restaurant. The only exceptions are Portage and Kenosha Counties, where certification must occur before opening for business. Certification is accomplished by passing an exam on safe food handling practices. The TLW is one of a few groups to offer instructional classes.

Our experienced instructors have taught over 37,000 hospitality employees over the last 27 years. They are people from the industry who know what to teach and how to teach it. The information covered allows food handlers to learn the proper techniques for handling food in a safe and convenient manner.

Certified food managers must take the written exam every five years after initial completion of the program. Establishments that have five or fewer cooks or food handlers across the entire staff may qualify for the small operator’s permit under Wisconsin licensure of Food Safety Training for Small Operators.

Due to a change in 2019, certified food managers no longer have a 30-day grace period after the expiration of their license or certificate. It is the responsibility of the license holder to get the proper certification in the mandated time.

Again, our instructors not only review the important elements of food handling, but also all the changes to the Food Code.

With constant changes in the food industry, it is vital that food handlers be kept up to date. When the certified person is not on premise, the person in charge must demonstrate this same knowledge. For the protection of your customers and your business, the Tavern League is proud to offer this certification.

The TLW offers over 100 classes a year throughout the state. Call the state office for our schedule or visit the education page on our website, tlwstore.org, to register.

LEGISLATIVE AND LEAGUE LEADERS DAY ANNUAL LEGISLATIVE DAY Each year, the TLW is proud to host its Legislative Day in Madison. This important event offers the opportunity for our members to participate in a truly grassroots lobbying effort.

The 2020 event marked the 36th year the TLW gathered in Madison to learn about legislative issues facing our industry. Scott Stenger, our government affairs director, had a comprehensive agenda covering topics of interest to all members. Guest speakers from the Senate and Assembly were on hand to share their views on pending legislation. Members were also invited to the Capitol to visit with their legislators and discuss issues. The next day, the Senate Committee voted in favor of a SafeRide increase. Thank you to our members and sponsors who attended!

As always, this is an important day for the association,

LEAGUE LEADERS DAY Mark your calendars and improve your leadership skills at our annual League Leaders Day, which is traditionally scheduled for the last Monday in August. This is an opportunity to network with League Leaders from all of our leagues statewide.

Our goal is to help you operate your local league in a more successful manner. Leaders share ideas and concerns, and help solve common problems. It’s a great educational day concluding with a reception sponsored by the TLW. If you are interested in attending this year’s event, please visit tlw.org/events/league-leaders-day for more information. www.tlw.org

WISCONSIN ALCOHOL BEVERAGE LAWS FOR RETAILERS 4. Closing hours the same as “Class B” License.

Notice: With limited exceptions, all retailers of alcohol beverages may only sell to consumers who are physically at the licensed premises.

FOR EXAMPLE: 1. A customer phones in an order to a local pizza parlor (that holds a “Class B” Beer License) to have a pizza and a six pack of beer delivered to his home — this sale is prohibited, as the sale was not made face-to-face to the consumer at the licensed premises.

2. A group of college students call their local liquor store and ask that six half barrels of beer be delivered to their house for a party — this sale is prohibited, as the sale was not made face-to-face to the consumers at the licensed premises.

III. ALCOHOL BEVERAGE LAW A. Closing Hours

Customers must leave the premises by the closing hour; internal business operations (counting cash, cleaning, repairs, etc.) may be done after hours but licensees must be able to prove that anyone on the premises after hours is there for these purposes.

Hotels and restaurants whose “principal business” is furnishing lodging and food to customers, bowling centers, indoor horseshoe pitching facilities, golf courses and curling clubs may remain open after hours to conduct their regular business. They may not permit consumption of or sell alcohol beverages after hours.

“Principal business” means the primary activity as determined by analyzing the amount of capital, labor, time, attention and floor space devoted to each business activity and by analyzing the sources of net income and gross income.

The name, appearance and advertising of the entity may also be taken into consideration if they are given less weight.

B. Daylight Saving Time Section 175.095(2), Wis. Stats. states that daylight saving time begins at 2 a.m. the second Sunday in March and ends at 2 a.m. the first Sunday in November.

As such, clocks are set ahead one hour at 2 a.m. the second Sunday in March. Thus taverns would close at 3:30 a.m. daylight saving time on this date.

On the first Sunday in November, the clocks are set back an hour at 2 a.m.; bars gain an extra hour and must close at 2:30 a.m. regular Central Standard Time.

C. Training Requirements for Completion of the Responsible Beverage Server Training Course (Required as a Condition of Licensing) Applicants must successfully complete an approved training course, such as courses offered by the Wisconsin Technical College System, or similar approved courses (see “Training” on the department’s website at revenue.wi.gov) unless: 1. The person is renewing a retail or an operator’s (bartender’s/ sales clerk’s) license.

2. The person was the agent (within the last two years) for a corporation that held a “Class A” Beer, “Class B” Beer, “Class A” Liquor, “Class B” Liquor or “Class C” Wine License.

3. The person held a retail license or an operator’s or manager’s license during the past two years.

4.

The person completed such a course within the past two years.

IV. LICENSING A license is a privilege granted by local authorities to a particular person, partnership or corporation to run a particular place for the time period specified. Just as one’s driver’s license can’t be used by another, an alcohol beverage license can’t be used by someone other than the licensee to sell alcohol beverages. The license or permit of a person who violates this shall be revoked.

The governing body of every city, village and town may, but is not required to, issue local retail liquor and beer licenses. The municipality may refuse to issue licenses as long as it uses good judgment and does not discriminate between applicants.

V. SALE OF ALCOHOL BEVERAGES The term “sale,” “sold” or “sell” includes the transfer, gift, barter, trade, exchange or any shift, device, scheme or transaction whatever, whereby alcohol beverages may be obtained. Giving away alcohol beverages or using any other device to evade the law relating to its sale is an unlawful sale.

The following are some examples of illegal transactions at unlicensed premises: 1. A “free” drink with a meal; 2. A cover charge, whereby mix is furnished at a price, with “no charge” for liquor; 3. A “free” bottle of liquor tied into the sale of some other item.

Penalty: Fine of not more than $10,000 or imprisonment for not more than nine months, or both.

VI. SELLER’S PERMIT A. Every individual, partnership, corporation or other organization selling tangible personal property in Wisconsin must have a seller’s permit.

B. A licensee may not conduct business without a seller’s permit, which must be issued in the same name as the licensee.

If the retail liquor license is issued to a partnership or corporation, the seller’s permit must be, too, not to the agent, officer or individual. If you have a question about sales and use taxes, write to the department in Madison or call or visit any department office. www.tlw.org

The Special Occupational Tax return (TTB Form 5630.5) is available from the National Revenue Center, (800) 937-8864.

VIII. LICENSES FRAMED AND POSTED All liquor and beer licenses must be framed and posted in the room where the business is carried on. Everyone visiting the business must be able to easily see the licenses in that room. Any related permits and licenses should be posted with the alcohol beverage license.

The licensee or; 2. An adult member of the licensee’s immediate family (actually living in the licensee’s household) or; 3.

B. An adult working under the immediate supervision of any of the above does not need an operator’s license. NOTE: “Immediate supervision” means that the licensed person must be able to watch and supervise each unlicensed person’s actions. This means that the licensed person must be in the same room or area as the unlicensed person, near enough to see and talk to him or her, and to be able to actually supervise the unlicensed person.

C. An operator’s license is good in any premises in the municipality where it has been issued, but it may be used only in that municipality. Licensees may be prosecuted for not having the required supervision on their premises.

X. SALE TO INTOXICATED PERSONS

It is illegal to furnish alcohol beverages to an intoxicated person. The penalty for this violation is a $100 to $500 fine, imprisonment for not more than 60 days or both. www.tlw.org

XI. REFILLED LIQUOR BOTTLES A. It is illegal to refill any liquor bottle; you may not pour any substance into a liquor bottle, even the same brand of liquor.

B. When a bottle is empty, deface its label and break the bottle.

If the bottle has a Wisconsin tax stamp, deface this, too.

C. You don’t have to break bottles saved for recycling; however, the labels must be defaced. Bottles saved for recycling must be placed in boxes marked “For Recycling Only.”

D. You do not have to break empty ceramic decanters, but you must deface the tax stamp, if any.

XII. IDENTIFICATION REGISTER A. The Department of Revenue recommends that every licensee keep an ID register book. The ID register may be used to record the identity of a person who alleges he or she is of legal drinking age. The book may also be used to record the identity of a person who alleges that he or she is an underage person’s parent, guardian or spouse and that he or she has attained the legal drinking age. Record the date of purchase, the type of ID used and the address of the purchaser, then have the purchaser sign the register. Check the signature in the book against the signature on the ID to see that they match.

B. The “Proof of Age Register” or “Identification Register Book” may be purchased, at a small fee, from: 1. Tavern League of Wisconsin, 2817 Fish Hatchery Rd., Fitchburg, WI 53713-5005, (608) 270-8591 or info@tlw.org.

XIII. PRESERVATION OF RECORDS Alcohol beverage (and cigarette and tobacco products) retailers must purchase these products only from Wisconsin wholesalers.

They may not be transferred between retail accounts, except that alcohol beverages may be as specified in “Transfer of Alcohol Beverage Stock” below.

Keep invoices for all purchases of liquor and beer (and cigarettes and tobacco products) on the licensed premises for two years from the date of the invoice. Keep them in sequence and in chronological order. They must be available for inspection during business hours.

XIV. TRANSFER OF ALCOHOL BEVERAGE STOCK If you sell your business, you may transfer your sealed liquor, wine and beer stock to another retail licensee in this state.

List your entire sealed stock on an inventory Form AT-900 available at the Department of Revenue’s website at revenue.wi.gov. Complete this form in duplicate, sign it and have it signed by the buyer. Give one copy to the buyer, to be kept as an invoice on the licensed premises, and keep one copy for your own records. Cigarettes and tobacco products may not be transferred.

WISCONSIN ALCOHOL BEVERAGE LAWS FOR RETAILERS XV. CORKAGE FEES Wisconsin alcohol beverage law does not allow “corkage fees” — fees charged by restaurant owners to allow patrons to carry in their own alcohol beverages to be consumed on the premises.

If the restaurant does have an alcohol beverage license, the only alcohol beverages allowed on the premises are those which the retailer has purchased from a licensed Wisconsin wholesaler; the retailer is required to have invoices from the wholesaler showing what product the retailer has purchased from the wholesaler.

If the restaurant does not have an alcohol beverage license, allowing consumption of alcohol beverages is prohibited and the restaurant owner can be charged for allowing its illegal consumption.

XVI. CREDIT LAWS A licensee may only buy liquor or beer for cash or on credit terms for a period not to exceed 30 days (liquor) or 15 days (beer).

A separate authorization is necessary for each date on which underage persons will be on the premises. (Sec. 125.07(3)(a) (8), Wis. Stats.)

8. The underage person is on “Class B” or “Class B” licensed premises, on a date specified by the license, when no alcohol beverages are consumed, sold or given away.

Beverages that contain less than 0.5% alcohol by volume are not classified as “alcohol beverages.” Thus, these “nonalcohol” beverages are not regulated by Chapter 125; they are to be treated the same as other noncarbonated waters and sodas, and may be sold to anyone, regardless of age.

These beverages should not be confused with those labeled “low alcohol,” which generally contain 3.2% alcohol, and are regulated by Chapter 125 as being alcohol beverages.

XXII. EMPLOYMENT OF MINORS A. Minors under 14 years of age may not be employed where alcohol beverages are sold except that minors as young as 12 may be employed at such establishments if their parents own the business.

2. Minors may be so employed or appear at dances held solely for minors, conducted by private clubs or civic organizations, where admission is limited to the club membership or by club invitation, and the general public is excluded. (Sec. 103.78, Wis. Stats.).

(Sec. 103.78(1)(d), Wis. Stats., and Wis. Adm. Code DWD 270.)

5. Provides to another underage person an official ID card or other documentation claiming that the other underage person is of legal drinking age, knowing that the documentation is false.

C. Any person who violates A, for money or other consideration, is guilty of a Class I felony.

XXVI. ID/DL CHECKING GUIDE A. False ID/DL Checking Guide • Ask pertinent questions about the ID presented. For example, if an ID card is presented as proof of age, ask how the driving was on the way to the establishment. If the person was driving, ask to see his or her DL. • Check the card’s expiration date. If the DL has expired, maybe it really does not belong to the holder, but to an older sibling who has already got a replacement for it. How did he or she get to the establishment using an expired DL? • Watch for stamp of “duplicate” on the card. If they have a duplicate, maybe someone else has the original, and one of them is lying.

JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2021

• People with false IDs rarely carry backup documentation, whereas most people have several forms. When confronted with a possible false ID, ask for further documentation.

• Question the carrier as to some basic information on the card, such as address, exact birth date, middle initial or spelling of last name. If they don’t answer to your satisfaction, refuse service and request that they immediately leave.

B. Look for: • Glue lines.

• Bumpy surfaces by the picture or birth date. Any surface area inconsistent with the rest of the ID usually indicates tampering.

• Overlay of reprinted numbers (and a shadowy or cloudy image). ID card may have been opened to alter numbers.

• Missing spots on the state logo. ID alterers often forget to pay attention to one of the most obvious clues on the card.

• Letters and numbers, size of lettering and format of the card when compared to a legitimate DL or ID. How may digits for expiration and date of birth?

C. Also: • Use a blacklight and magnifying glass to check for secu- rity features such as ultraviolet/microprinting on the DL or ID. • Check reverse side lettering. Oftentimes counterfeiters will spend great amounts of time on reproducing an authenticlooking photoboard, but will merely photocopy the reverse side. These are often blurred, a sure sign of photocopying.

• Bend the card, feel it. How does it feel compared to the authentic card?

• What is the color of card?

• Check the size of the DL. How does it compare to a genuine one?

• Check the color/thickness and clarity of lettering.

• Check thickness of the card.

• Check the corners of the card. Are they well-rounded and smooth or uneven and jagged? This is one of the best methods for detecting counterfeit cards.

• Is there shading or glare on the picture or redness in eyes?

Most driver licensing stations have their cameras set to avoid these problems.

• Use an ID Checking Guide, especially in areas where there is a heavy out-of-state population. There are several commercial companies that publish these guides, which picture all of the states’ driver’s licenses.

• Always check the reverse side.
