Authorizes holder of limited brewery license to engage in certain activities.
This bill (A1537) amends New Jersey law to expand permitted activities for breweries holding limited brewery licenses. It allows these license holders to host unlimited on-premises special events (such as weddings, trivia nights, and live music) without requiring permits or electronic notifications to the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The bill also permits up to 18 off-premises events annually (like beer festivals and races) with a director's permit, and removes the requirement for breweries to provide tours before serving alcohol on premises. Additionally, it eliminates the need for server certification under industry-recognized training programs and allows limited breweries to sell soda and coordinate with food vendors for food service on their premises.
