This is a nitpick, but I thought a liquor license was required to SELL liquor? technically, people can bring their own liquor as long as no one is selling it or dispensing it to minors. The store could also have a policy against it.
I know of a few restaurants that are BYOB, I thought that was so that they could get away with having liquor on premise without having a license?
Not that that changes anything about Fayes situation.

Yes, a liquor license is only needed to sell (or give away, I guess) alcohol. You do not need one to allow people to have alcohol in your store, as with you example of BYOB places. Where I've lived the town only allows a certain amount of liquor licenses at one time (they sell them for a shit-ton of money when one becomes available seeing as it was a vacation town). Many restaurants that couldn't serve alcohol just encouraged patrons to bring their own.

It's a different situation down here.
In Australia and New Zealand, the term "BYO" (Bring Your Own) emerged to describe business establishments that offered corkage. It is believed that restaurants in Melbourne, in the state of Victoria, were advertising as "BYO" establishments by the 1960s with the concept becoming popular in New Zealand in the late 1970s. Legally, using New Zealand as an example, if your premise only holds an on-licence-endorsed (BYOB license), you as an owner and duty manager with a General Manager's Certificate are forbidden to have a wine list and sell alcohol on the premise. You must have both On-License & On-License-Endorsed to have a wine list and allow BYOB, thus calling your restaurant 'fully licensed'
