According to 6 ABC in Philadelphia, 29 bars are listed in what's being called, "Operation Swill." The New Jersey attorney general's office said that the bars and restaurants swapped out top-shelf liquor for well brands.

According to 6 ABC,

"Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa said the New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control, with the assistance of the Division of Criminal Justice, seized inventory and served demands for records from the 29 bars and restaurants during a year-long investigation.

Investigators said the establishments would fill premium brand bottles with non-premium brands to "fool the customer and increase their profits."

The article also mentioned that the information was gathered from customers, secret informants and special technology to test samples of the liquor.
