A 2590 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Allows craft distilleries to sell mixed drinks and mixed drink ingredients for consumption off the licensed premises; authorizes direct shipping by craft distilleries.

This bill, A2590, allows New Jersey craft distilleries to sell mixed drinks and mixed drink ingredients for off-premises consumption. It authorizes craft distilleries to ship up to 20 liters of distilled spirits per year directly to consumers over 21 for personal use (not resale), both within New Jersey and to out-of-state residents (in amounts permitted by destination states). The bill makes permanent temporary provisions from P.L.2020, c.33 that allowed craft distilleries to sell mixed drinks in sealed containers with tamper evidence (max 16 fluid ounces) and to sell distilled spirits with nonalcoholic beverages or food items for consumers to mix themselves. This directly affects craft distilleries holding a "craft distillery license" (3d), defined as those manufacturing not more than 20,000 gallons of distilled alcoholic beverages annually.
