Bottled Beer Shortage Sparks Liquor License Hearings
The Manilla liquor license hearing reveals persistent bottled beer shortages at Stoddart and Hayward hotels and high country demand. Witnesses including J T Byrnes and J W Moore describe limited supplies, with country deliveries lacking until now. Mackenzie and Sons seek a license to expand to country customers, arguing current deliveries via petrol and oils networks could support liquor sales and improve local service.
