The bill amends R.S.33:1-10 to authorize direct shipping by craft distilleries in New Jersey, allowing them to ship up to nine liters of distilled spirits per year to individuals over 21 years of age for personal consumption. This change is designed to enhance the distribution capabilities of craft distilleries and promote local businesses. Additionally, the bill introduces provisions for holders of certain licenses, such as the plenary winery and farm winery licenses, to ship up to 12 cases of wine per year, with each case not exceeding nine liters, directly to consumers. It also outlines various licensing fees and requirements for different types of brewery and winery licenses, ensuring compliance with state regulations regarding the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages.

Moreover, the legislation removes several restrictions, including the prohibition on direct shipment of distilled spirits both within and outside the state, the requirement for consumers to take a tour to sample spirits on-site, and the previous limit of five liters per person for off-premises consumption. It mandates that a copy of the original invoice must be available for inspection at the distillery's licensed premises for a minimum of three years. These amendments align New Jersey's laws with similar regulations in Kentucky, known as Bourbon without Borders, aimed at expanding consumer access to craft distillery products.
