Must Have Monday

Keeping Your Cellar and Fridge Stocked During the Crisis
​In anticipation of a much longer quarantine than expected, you may find yourself running out of your favorite wine, beer, cider or spirit. Depending on your location (and liquor laws in your state) you may be able to get your order delivered directly to your door. In some cases, when you order groceries, you may be able to have a six-pack or two delivered as well. We have compiled a list of possible apps and services that deliver this essential ingredient for any quarantine. Local laws apply, so some of these will be limited to major metropolitan areas. Check with your local breweries, distillers and cider shops to see if they offer bottles of their products for pick up. Another way to get your hands on the gold is to sign up for a cellar club from your favorite winery or one of the brewery clubs available. Here are our favorites:
 
Drizly:
Drizly works with local stores and promises to deliver your selections within 60 minutes, which is awesome if you drink more than expected. (Please keep in mind that with the current COVID-19 situation, wait times may vary.)
Drizly serves cities in 26 states. Use this link to get $5 off your first order. https://drizly.com/i/gycnz
 
Minibar:  
Minibar is similar to Drizly, Minibar works with local liquor stores and quickly delivers the goods to your home in under an hour. (Again wait times may very.)

Total Wine and More:
If you are lucky enough to live near a Total Wine and More, their stores may offer delivery. This will depend on the restrictions in your particular jurisdiction. The website lists Las Vegas as a possible place where online orders are no longer accepted.

Local wine shops, package stores and restaurants/bar may also be delivering in your area. Please check with those folks as well for your alcohol needs.
