Makes permanent temporary enactment allowing certain sale and delivery of alcoholic beverages and clarifies privileges.*
What changed between versions
Concessionaire permits were removed from the list of license types entitled to sell and deliver alcoholic beverages off-premises under Section 1(a).
Seasonal retail consumption license holders were given a new delivery privilege (new subsection 5) allowing them to sell and deliver alcoholic beverages off-premises, subject to the same restriction that original containers are not permitted except for malted beverages.
Delivery method changed from 'by common carrier or otherwise' to 'by the licensee or a licensed third party delivery service,' restricting who can perform deliveries.
Retail licensees (plenary retail consumption, hotel/motel, seasonal) can no longer deliver alcoholic beverages in original containers. Only mixed drinks in closed and sealed containers and malted beverages may be delivered. This restriction was added as a proviso to both Section 1(2) and the plenary retail consumption license provisions.
All direct-to-consumer delivery provisions for manufacturers were struck: limited brewery, plenary winery (under 250,000 gallons), farm winery, cidery and meadery, and craft distillery licenses can no longer deliver their products directly to consumers' residences in original containers.
The bill's stated scope was broadened from amending only R.S.33:1-10 and R.S.33:1-12 to amending 'various parts of the statutory law,' reflecting the expanded reorganization of R.S.33:1-12.
