Question 1

You've had your TABC certification for two years. Regarding maintaining the currency of your certification, which statement is true?

Accepted Answer

Attending the entire seller training session is mandatory.

Answer

TABC certification requires individuals to complete the full seller training course for initial certification and for re-certification, regardless of how long they've been certified. There is no shortened re-certification course available in Texas. This ensures that all sellers are thoroughly updated on current laws, regulations, and best practices for responsible alcohol sales.

Question 2

If the population of a county or city is less than _______________. If enough people request it, the county or municipal may issue an order allowing extended hours sales in that region.

Accepted Answer

800,000

Answer

The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code specifies that for counties or cities with a population of less than 800,000, extended hours sales may be permitted if enough qualified voters petition for it. This provision allows smaller communities to decide on extended alcohol sales hours based on local demand and preferences. This distinguishes them from larger metropolitan areas which may have different regulations.

Question 3

A _______________ permit holder is allowed to sellby the drink for any kind of alcoholic beverage.

Accepted Answer

mixed beverage

Answer

A 'mixed beverage permit' is specifically issued by the TABC to establishments that sell all types of alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, and distilled spirits) for on-premises consumption, typically by the drink. This permit is essential for restaurants, bars, and clubs that offer a full range of alcoholic drinks to their customers. It allows for the sale of any kind of alcoholic beverage.

Question 4

Within _______________ feet of any public or private school serving kindergarten through twelfth grade, it is illegal to consume or have an open container of alcohol in any public setting.

Accepted Answer

100

Answer

Texas law prohibits the consumption or possession of an open container of alcohol in a public place within 100 feet of any public or private school that serves students from kindergarten through twelfth grade. This regulation is designed to create a safe and alcohol-free environment around educational institutions. It helps protect minors from exposure to alcohol.

Question 5

A person with a wine-only package store permit may hire someone to work in any position as long as they are at least:

Accepted Answer

16 years old

Answer

In Texas, a person holding a wine-only package store permit is allowed to hire individuals as young as 16 years old to work in any capacity within the store. However, it's important to note that while they can work, individuals must be 18 years old to sell, serve, or deliver alcohol, and 21 years old to consume it. This specific rule applies to general employment in a wine-only package store.
