No license issued under section twelve or fifteen, and no certificate of fitness issued under section thirty shall authorize the sale of any alcoholic beverages other than those purchased from a licensee under section eighteen, nineteen or 19F or nineteen C or from a holder of a special permit to sell issued under section twenty-two A; provided, that the holder of a license under section twelve or fifteen may sell alcoholic beverages acquired as the result of the purchase of a warehouse receipt for such beverages if the said receipt was purchased from the holder of a license under section eighteen, nineteen, 19F or nineteen C or from a broker registered under chapter one hundred and ten A who is authorized thereunder to deal in warehouse receipts for alcoholic beverages; and provided, further, that nothing contained in this section shall be construed to authorize a licensee under section twelve or fifteen to import alcoholic beverages into the commonwealth except through the holder of a license issued under section eighteen or 19F. 

No license issued under section fourteen shall authorize the sale of any alcoholic beverages other than those purchased from a licensee under section eighteen, nineteen or 19F or nineteen C or from a holder of a special permit to sell issued under section twenty-two A, unless the holder of a license under section fourteen is purchasing no more than 5 gallons of wine, 34 gallons of malt beverages, or 3 gallons of distilled spirits, or all, or their measured equivalent.  If the nonprofit organization holding a license under section fourteen is purchasing no more than 5 gallons of wine, 34 gallons of malt beverages, or 3 gallons of distilled spirits, or all, or their measured equivalent, said holder may purchase from a licensee under section 15, and a licensee under section 15 may sell to the holder of a license under section 14 not more than 5 gallons of wine, 34 gallons of malt beverages, or 3 gallons of distilled spirits, or their measured equivalent.  The nonprofit organization holding a license under section 14 may transport for its use without any license or permit such limited quantities of wine, malt beverages, and distilled spirits.
