[Anonymous No.14614750]

What's even more stupid is distribution laws. Distillers and breweries can't sell directly to retailers and consumers. So there is an artificial middleman parasite that does distribution and increases the costs. If you have a small operation and a distributor doesn't want to pick up your product, then you're just fucked. You can't sell it except on site at the brewery or distillery which basically means you can't sell it.

It's likely not going to change because distributors have lobbying power at state levels. Without the three tier system these distributors wouldn't exist so they'll fight to the death to keep the laws the same. The only way it would change if a more powerful entity like Amazon wants to break into the alcohol game.

As for the shipping rattling bottles, if old timer chianti producers could come up with a fiasco, and the Japanese can protect their delicate oversized apples with a styrofoam net, it's reasonable to assume that someone can come up with a cardboard coffee cup sleeve for liquor bottles and throw a block of dry ice in to keep it from dying in the sun, and you can get a shipment of (new specialty product) direct shipped to you before the retailers have heard of it to place an order.

Most of them started as old blue laws and regulations of booze continue for other reasons. Texas for example just went yellow but with a shitload of stipulations. Additionally, there are lots of rules about selling beer to go (like, bottles/cans) if you are selling pours or vice versa. Texas also doesn't allow liquor stores to be opened on Sunday and no beer/wine before noon on Sunday. Every time law revisions come up in the legislature, big booze attempts to impose more rules against craft breweries. It's stupid as fuck

I don't want a whole shipment, I want one bottle. There's no incentive for me to pay $12 per bottle extra just so that some hick can order a pallet of Tito's because the nearest liquor store is a 3 hour drive because minorities are so scary let's ruin our lives just to avoid ever seeing one.

I lived in Northern Virginia, which was ABC when I lived there. This is the scourge, those ABC stores with minimal selection, a pick of products determined by who knows what criteria. Give me Total Wine with shelves liquers stocked based on the actual market demand, where I can find brands from my travels. I want a large selection of imports because I like a variety of things.
There's some annoyance when traveling and finding stores closed on Sundays, or being in a grocery somewhere and needing marsala for a recipe and some cashier is like "no sales past 7PM" and puts it aside like you're a lush for even trying to buy it.

Virginia is an ABC state where the stores are all owned by the government and the prices all standardized.
I don't know about Arizona in general but Phoenix is interesting. They have these "brown paper bag" stores and regular stores. I went to nice dinner at a restaurant one night a block away from my hotel, the next day I wanted to get a bottle or two or whatever for my room so asked the concierge about a close liquor store and they told me that restaurant, now there was nothing about that restaurant that indicated it was a liquor store but sure enough I went there and talked to someone at their front desk, they got this set of keys, led me down a hallway to a big door, he unlocked it then it opened up into this big room with a really high ceiling stacked from floor to ceiling with cases of booze and wine.
I got a couple bottles but the requirement was that they had to put them in brown paper bags, hence the name "brown paper bag" store.

I think being able to order like specialty things that your local stores don't/won't carry is cool, but I can't imagine regularly relying on a delivery service. I like visiting my little local stores in person for regular runs.

I live in NC, which is a beverage control state and I highly doubt anyone will ever change that here. However we're one of the better control states in that the stores are run by county boards and manage to be numerous, well-stocked and decently priced from what I know. Plus there's no limits on beer and wine besides not being able to get it between midnight and ten am on Sundays; I live like 25 minutes from a Total Wine which is awesome.

Anyway, I know we can get beer shipped and stuff, but I don't think there's any true delivery for it here. Which I find odd, because if the law allows for it, why isn't there a way to order a cold sixer to the door? The amount of times I've wished for that makes me think it would be lucrative.

It's called State, County and Municipalities rights to police themselves. Places like Miami Beach have a right to stop serving alcohol at 4am, if they wish. It can be nothing more than letting police go home by midnight somewhere, and stop policing the roads or be available for problems. It can be about budgets, in other words. It probably isn't, but more likely about just statistics for problems that drinkers cause, from accidents, domestic arguments, to making sure there is no reason for late night drunk driving to/from places that sell alcohol to the desperate.
