Didn't wework have to switch to kombucha after someone realized that a place where you pay money to hang out all day and drink is in fact a bar and you need a liquor license?

> Are you saying that having beer on tap is either unprofessional or not conducive to actual work? Color me shocked!

A "liquor" license and a "beer and wine" license are 2 different things. A beer and wine license is a few hundred bucks (depending on your location), and just requires some paperwork. A liquor license can be over $100k depending on your location.

In California, you do not need a license to "give away" beer or wine for free or in exchange for something like a ticket.

I thought that was only in certain jurisdictions. Maybe it was universal though.

I'd assume it'd be certain jurisdictions. You definitely don't need a liquor license to serve beer and wine universally[1].
