For some reason, tomorrow I will legally be able to order a prostitute to my door, drop $5K on a blackjack table at a State-ran casino, kill and eat an animal, and smoke a carton of cigarettes on the steps of my apartment — but I cannot walk into a bottle shop and take home six beers to enjoy in the comfort of my own home while watching re-runs of Blue Heelers. (The William McInnes years, obviously).
Or can I?
Well, judging by the headline, you already know that you can, but how? Simply by purchasing your beer at the brewery from whence it sprung forth.
Producers and cellar doors are exempt from the silly Good Friday laws, which means the likes of Young Henry’s in Newtown, The Grifter Brewing Company in Marrickville, Rocks Brewing Company in Alexandria, Willie The Boatman in St. Peters and Archie Rose Distilling in Rosebury can sell you drinks tomorrow.
Now, that’s a miracle.
