Summary

The law mandates that any licensed retailer selling alcoholic drinks for on‑site consumption must give a removable lid if a patron requests one. Retailers may charge a modest fee based on the wholesale cost of the lids, but they may also offer lids for free. A first‑time violation results only in a warning from the licensing department.
