Any person who brews beer for sale without having in force a proper licence under this Act commits an offence and is liable to a fine. An annual duty is attached to the licence. A brewer shall keep books on the production of beer and an authorized officer may take samples as he may considers necessary of any wort or beer or materials for brewing in the possession of any brewer. Any person may export as merchandise, or for use as ship’s stores, any beer brewed by a brewer in Belize, upon giving notice in the required form to the proper customs officer. The beer shall be in such casks or packages as may be prescribed.
