S 1172 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Increases craft distillery production limits; eliminates tour requirement for on-premises consumption; permits sale of snacks on craft distillery premises.

This bill modifies New Jersey's licensing rules for craft distilleries. It increases their allowed production volume, removes the requirement for visitors to take a tour to consume alcohol on-site, and permits distilleries to sell snacks (like food items) at their facilities. These changes directly affect licensed craft distilleries operating under the current "limited brewery license" classification. The bill updates Section 33:1-10 of New Jersey law to reflect these specific policy adjustments to distillery operations.
