Increases craft distillery production limits.
This bill increases the annual production limit for craft distilleries operating under a limited brewery license from 300,000 barrels to a higher amount. It directly affects small craft distilleries that currently produce near the current cap, allowing them to expand output without needing a different license type. The key mechanism raises the maximum yearly production threshold for these businesses, enabling them to brew more malt alcoholic beverages. This change applies specifically to distilleries holding a limited brewery license under New Jersey law. The bill does not alter other licensing requirements or fees.
