Prior to June 2009, a person who sold a minor an alcoholic beverage had a defense available if the minor provided a fake Texas driver's license or ID card that showed the minor was 21 years old. Effective June 19, 2009, the defense was extended to any photo ID issued by a state or the federal government. Also, in April 2009, Texas DPS began issuing newly designed drivers licenses and ID cards.MORE INFORMATION

We have received several calls from Mixed Beverage clients about the practice of allowing customers to bring their own wine into a restaurant to drink with a meal. We would like to caution you that this practice is strictly prohibited by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code and could jeopardize your permit as well as subject you (the permittee) to possible criminal penalties. As a reminder, no alcoholic beverages may be brought onto or taken away from a Mixed Beverage Premise with the exception of an open and unfinished bottle of wine purchased from the restaurant with a meal. This applies to both Mixed Beverage and Private Club permittees.
