Pammi 0 #1 May 30, 2002 Though I'm hoping to get my own little homebrewing thing going soon, until then, I'm looking to find out what I can expect as far as beer laws in NC. Please tell me Johnston County isn't a 'dry county' first off :) Okay, in OK, I found out the hard way a couple years ago that they don't sell COLD beer in a liquor store, nor do they sell anything but 'near-beer' in the convenience store (but it IS cold). (I loved TX where they don't even have near-bear!)So what's the rules? And what about Sundays? This is important stuff to know when moving to a new state 'Nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
base698 1 #2 May 30, 2002 To my understanding nothing of 6% by volume. We don't have any retarded sizing rules though. All the local breweries when they make bocks they are under 6%. No beer before noon on Sunday either. If you make any good beer you will have to share after a long day of jumping :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 3 #3 May 30, 2002 Pammi,back in the day, you could not buy beer in Johnston county (1987). When I was cruising Benson many years ago, we had to drive to Lillington to get beer. Not sure about now. As far as state law goes, you can buy beer on Sunday, but not until after 12:00 noon. No place sells beer after 1:00 am on saturday night.

slotperfect 7 #8 May 31, 2002 OK, OK . . . for clarification, it was a Jeopardy joke (as in Alex Trebec) pointed at SkyMonkeyOne, who I have known for a hundred years. If he was offended, he can thrash me when he sees me this weekend. If the rest of y'all were offended, I humbly bow in apology. Respectfully,SP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pammi 0 #11 May 31, 2002 Ah, I knew jumpers would know beer :) Thanks guys! One thing that WAS cool about OK was the whole "penny beer" nights at local bars! I *did* see they have a big "World of Beer" party thing in Sept. in Durham. Sounds a little like Octoberfest..but more fun ;) We're driving out tomorrow wingy! So just checking online stuff before we disconnect and pack it up. A whole weekend of driving with three dogs, two cats, a hamster, a fish and a frog..fun fun :)'Nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
