Bill Summary
This bill permits farm brewery licensees to sell products to consumers for consumption on the licensed premises. Under current law, the holder of a farm brewery license is entitled, subject to rules and regulations, to brew any malt alcoholic beverages in a quantity to be expressed in the license not in excess of 2,500 barrels of 31 fluid gallons per year and to sell products to consumers for consumption off the licensed premises and to offer samples for sampling purposes only. This bill allows holders of a farm brewery license to also sell products to consumers for consumption on the licensed premises.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing New Jersey law to allow holders of a "farm brewery license" to sell their brewed malt alcoholic beverages to consumers for consumption on the licensed premises, in addition to the current allowance for off-premises consumption and sampling. A farm brewery license, as defined in the law, is for entities that brew malt alcoholic beverages, are actively engaged in farming, and produce beverages primarily from ingredients grown on their land, with a production limit of 2,500 barrels per year. Previously, these licensees could only sell for consumption off the premises and offer samples.
