Sec. 251.75. CONTINUANCE OF OPERATION AS MANUFACTURER OR BREWER. Notwithstanding any other provision of this code, if the sale of beer or ale is prohibited in an area by a local option election, a holder of a manufacturer's license or brewer's permit that was issued prior to the election may not be denied an original or renewal manufacturer's license or brewer's permit for the same location on the ground that the local option status of the area prohibits the sale of beer or ale. Except for the right to sell beer or ale contrary to the local option status of the area, the licensee or permittee may engage in all activities authorized by the license or permit, including the manufacturing, brewing, possessing, storing, and packaging of beer or ale, and transporting it to an area where its sale is legal. The licensee or permittee may deliver beer or ale at his licensed premises to a purchaser from outside the state, an authorized carrier, distributor, or class B wholesaler. The purchaser, carrier, distributor, or class B wholesaler may not receive the beer or ale for transportation unless there has first been an order, acceptance, and payment or legal satisfaction of payment in an area where the sale of beer or ale is legal.
