Reply to comment by jackospades88 in Spurred by Gov. Murphy’s reform pledge, NJ lawmakers are working on changing liquor licensing laws that have remained largely unchanged since the years just following Prohibition: The current laws make obtaining a liquor license difficult and allow for a finite number of retail consumption licenses by rollotomasi07071

There's loopholes around it. You can have both but I believe you can't show live events at breweries. Bar and restaurant owners want to maintain their customers so they limit the abilities of breweries with super nit picky laws. They're trying to pass another where you can only have ~60 events a year. This includes participating in events not only hosting. It's really a shame how greedy other small business owners are that they destroy an emerging market as opposed to find a mutually beneficial situation.

So call your legislature to tell them to support the Brewers guild of NJ and if you see an IPA called Brew Jersey from any NJ brewery buy it since the funds supports the guild.

I work in consumer science and my panelists get paid the same about (~$120) for 8 hours of work to sit and chew gum. No stress involved, in fact they do it to de stress. Insane that education is so undervalued! Like does everything have to be become privatized so parents and community leaders can't bitch about their taxes going toward something that doesn't directly benefit them?! The whole situation is incredibly fucked and is not complicated or hard to understand. Pay people appropriately for their work and invest in future of our children.
