1.11 	guests at one time. A wine license permits the sale of wine of up to 14 percent alcohol by 
1.12 	volume for consumption with the sale of food. A wine license authorizes the sale of wine

1.15 	(b) The governing body of a municipality may by ordinance authorize a holder of 
1.16 	an on-sale wine license issued pursuant to paragraph (a) who is also licensed to sell 3.2 
1.17 	percent malt liquors at on-sale pursuant to section  340A.411, and whose gross receipts 
1.18 	are at least 60 percent attributable to the sale of food, to sell intoxicating malt liquors 
1.19 	at on-sale without an additional license. 
1.20 	(c) A municipality may issue an on-sale wine license with the approval of the 
1.21 	commissioner to a licensed bed and breakfast facility. A license under this paragraph

1.23 	facility and, if the facility contains a licensed commercial kitchen, also to guests attending 
1.24 	events at the facility.
