Where this section sits in the code
  1. KRS Chapter 243

(1) Except as where specifically authorized by statute, a retailer licensed to sell

distilled spirits or wine by the drink shall only be permitted to sell or serve

distilled spirits and wine by the drink at one (1) main bar, counter, or similar

contrivance at the licensed premises.

(2) A retailer may have necessary service bars, if they are not located in any room

in which the members or guests or patrons of the place are invited or permitted

to come. No distilled spirits or wine shall be served at service bars.

(3) A supplemental bar license shall authorize the licensee to sell and serve

distilled spirits and wine by the drink at retail from an additional location other

than the main bar. A supplemental bar license is a nonquota license and shall

not be transferable to other premises.

(4) The fee for a supplemental license shall be the same as the fee for the primary

license authorizing retail distilled spirits and wine drink sales for each of up to

five (5) supplemental bar licenses. There shall be no fee for each supplemental

license issued in excess of five (5) to the same licensee at the same premises.

(5) A license authorizing retail malt beverage sales, by the drink or by the

package, authorizes the licensee to sell and serve malt beverages at any

location on the licensed premises without obtaining a supplemental bar license.
