What is an alcoholic beverage license?
A license issued under the Act is a permit to do that which would otherwise be unlawful. A license is not a right, but is a privilege, which can be suspended or revoked by administrative action because of violation of the Act or departmental rule. (Sections 23300 and 23355)
An alcoholic beverage license allows a business or organization to sell alcohol, which is a privilege. Selling alcohol without the license would be against the law. You may read more about the Alcohol Beverage Control’s licensing here.
