Newburyport: A sign at New England Wine and Spirits in Newburyport thanks those who supported repeal of the sales tax on alcohol. Office manager Joan Regan holds a bottle of Tactical Nuclear Penquin, a 32% alcohol by volume beer from Scotland which sells for $100 a bottle and would have been $106.25 with the old sales tax.
