(a) Except as provided under (g), (i), and (j) of this section, a package store license authorizes the licensee to sell alcoholic beverages to a person present on the licensed premises or to a person known to the licensee who makes a written solicitation to that licensee for shipment. A licensee, agent, or employee may only ship alcoholic beverages to the purchaser. Before commencing the practice of shipping alcoholic beverages, and with each subsequent application to renew the license, a licensee shall notify the board in writing of the licensee's intention to ship alcoholic beverages in response to a written solicitation. The package store licensee, agent, or employee shall include written information on fetal alcohol syndrome and fetal alcohol effects resulting from a woman consuming alcohol during pregnancy in a shipment of alcoholic beverages sold in response to a written solicitation.

(e) The business premises occupied by a holder of a package store license may not be connected by a door, opening, or other means of passage intended for the access of the general public to an adjacent retail business not licensed under this title, unless approved by the board.

(f) When the holder of a package store license is also a holder of a beverage dispensary license and the package store premises are contained within or are adjacent to the premises of the beverage dispensary and the only public entrance to the package store is by a door or other means within the premises of the beverage dispensary, the board shall determine if additional entrances to the package store are necessary for enforcement purposes, to meet health and fire safety standards, or for the convenience of the public.

(g) If a shipment is to an area that has restricted the sale of alcoholic beverages under AS 04.11.491 (a)(1), (2), or (3) or (b)(1) or (2), a package store licensee, agent, or employee may not ship to a purchaser more than 10 and one-half liters of distilled spirits, 24 liters or more of wine, or 12 gallons or more of malt beverages in a calendar month, or a lower amount of distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages if the municipality or established village has adopted the lower amount by local option under AS 04.11.491 (g).

The wine, champagne, distilled spirits, or beer for delivery may be purchased from a package store licensee by a florist or gift basket establishment with a state business license that designates the business as a florist or gift basket establishment. The package store licensee shall keep on file a copy of the Alaska business license of a florist or gift basket establishment to which the licensee sells wine, champagne, distilled spirits, or beer for delivery to third persons by the package store. The package store must keep a written record of each delivery made under this subsection for a period of at least one year, including the name of the business purchasing the wine, champagne, distilled spirits, or beer and the name of the person to whom the delivery is made.

A delivery under this subsection may be made only after a sale by written order received from a person present on the licensed premises who makes payment in full at least 48 hours before the delivery. The written order must include the name and address of the purchaser and the date, time, and address of the delivery, as well as the name and address of the responsible adult who will receive the delivery of alcoholic beverages. A delivery authorized under this subsection must be made by the licensee or an employee or agent of the licensee who has completed alcohol server training as required under AS 04.21.025 .
