Along with the announcement, a new app also surfaced, BevQ, a virtual queue management app to enforce social distancing.

The app even beat the likes of Domino’s, which is used all across India.

BevQ was developed by the Kerala-based FairCode Technologies and was also one of the apps chosen by a committee chaired by the IT secretary and the Kerala Startup Mission. The app issues tokens and time slots for people to buy alcohol from bars and restaurants. BevQ, which got over a lakh downloads within hours of its launch, found its place in the App Annie ranking even when bars and liquor stores in Kerala had opened only partially in May 2020 before being shut down again due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The stores across the state reopened only in December 2020.

A liquor sale queue management app in Kerala beat all other Indian food and drink apps in 2020

New Delhi, May 7 () Liquor makers have urged the Delhi government to withdraw 70 per cent additional tax imposed on liquor in the city, calling the move 'counterproductive'. The price increase, after the demand surge is over, would lead to decline in sales and also encourage illegal supply from neighbouring states, having lower price, the Confederation of Indian Alcoholic Beverage Companies (CIABC) said in a letter to Delhi government. "In our understanding this decision may perhaps have either or both of two objectives – one to raise more revenues for the government and two, to manage crowd at liquor outlets," CIABC Director General Vinod Giri said. "It is our humble view that this decision may prove to be counterproductive and suboptimal for both objectives as explained below," he added. Once the initial surge of panic purchase is over, this kind of price increase will have strong adverse effect on sales in Delhi, he said. "It will be further compounded by free flow of unlawful liquor from neighbouring states which have much lower prices. Such drastic price increase cannot sustain demand in Delhi, especially with cheaper options available across the border, and will actually be counterproductive," the association said. It asked that the 70 per cent tax be "treated, at best, as a very short term measure". "We, therefore, request you to kindly withdraw 70 per cent cess as early as possible," CIABC said. The Delhi government had imposed a 70 per cent special coronavirus fees on sale of liquor on the maximum retail price from May 5. According to the association, barely 50 of the 800 liquor retail outlets in the city were fully operational on the first two days after sale of liquor was allowed during the lockdown. Besides, all the bars in the cities are shut due to the coronavirus pandemic. CIABC suggested increasing the number of liquor shops immediately by allowing opening of all shops outside containment zones on the basis of self verification and those in malls which have independent entrances. Besides, it has asked to allow bars to sell liquor as they have unsold stock which will help in improving product availability. It has also suggested to allow online sales to keep crowd away from shops and to reduce human contact during the lockdown period. "Chhattisgarh, West Bengal and Punjab have already passed orders for such systems. Based on experiences elsewhere in the world, this can take 15-20 per cent customers away from shops. This is also more robust process where product can be traced from warehouse to the customer electronically," it said. KRH RVK

Liquor makers urges Delhi government to withdraw 70 pc additional tax 

The <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=haryana+government&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Haryana Government </a>has revised its <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=excise+policy&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">excise policy</a> and in this backdrop, the liquor prices in the state are going to shoot up by 20%. 
 
With an increase in <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=VAT&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">VAT</a>, excise duty and licence fee under the new state excise policy, people will have to pay extra. 
 
Also, nearly 500 liquor shops will be shifted, following the<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=supreme+court&amp;sortorder=effectivedate"> Supreme Court</a>'s order that no liquor shops will be permitted within 500 metres of national and state highways, Haryana Excise and Taxation Minister Captain Abhimanyu said here. 
 
Announcing the new excise policy, the minister said, excise duty on country-made liquor (CL) and Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) has been rationalised and certain new categories have also been introduced. 
 
He said under the new policy, the annual license fee of bars has been increased from Rs 12.5 lakh to Rs 15 lakh in Gurugram, Rs 10 lakh to Rs 12 lakh in Faridabad and Rs 7.5 lakh to Rs 9 lakh in other districts. 
 
VAT rates on liquor have been revised from existing 10 per cent plus surcharge at the rate of five per cent to 13 per cent plus surcharge in case of CL, 13.5 per cent plus surcharge in case of beer and 14 per cent plus surcharge in case of IMFL.

Occasionally, you'll find great promotions, either on shipping or credit when you buy a certain number of bottles at once. At the time of this update, there's free shipping on orders of $150 or more with the code "SHIP150".<h2>What to buy elsewhere</h2>We generally won't look to ReserveBar when restocking the bottom and middle shelves of our liquor cabinet or getting regular old beer or wine.For example, <a href="https://www.gopjn.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fproducts%2Fbulleit-bourbon" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">a fifth of Bulleit Bourbon from ReserveBar is $43</a> (down from the usual $46). That's not a deal, especially when the <a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=EHFxW6yx8Uo&amp;mid=2025&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wine.com%2Fproduct%2Fbulleit-kentucky-straight-bourbon-whiskey%2F5301892F530189" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Wine.com is charging $34</a> and <a href="https://drizly.sjv.io/c/196318/567662/9425?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdrizly.com%2Fliquor%2Fwhiskey%2Fbourbon%2Fbulleit-bourbon%2Fp2264" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Drizly is at $32</a>. While you'll usually find your run-of-the-mill brands offered for less elsewhere, it pays to poke around ReserveBar for these kinds of deals.Or if you're a Tito's Handmade Vodka drinker, your best option is to first call your local spirits shop to see if they're running their own delivery service. If they are, there's a good chance that will be your cheapest option. I went through the checkout process at ReserveBar competitors <a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=EHFxW6yx8Uo&amp;mid=2025&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wine.com%2Fproduct%2Ftitos-handmade-vodka%2F5308182F530818" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored nofollow sponsored">Wine.com</a> and <a href="https://drizly.sjv.io/c/196318/567662/9425?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdrizly.com%2Fliquor%2Fvodka%2Ftitos-handmade-vodka%2Fp304" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Drizly</a> for a lone fifth of Tito's to find that you're going to pay close to $40, if not $50, for what should be a $20 bottle (give or take a few bucks), thanks to the sites' shipping and handling charges (taxes obviously vary from state to state).So long as your local retailer isn't marking up its prices too badly, you probably won't pay much more than $30 for that same delivery from them, not to mention that it'll likely arrive within the hour. Support your local retailers when and where you can, but also when and where it makes financial sense for you.<h2>How ReserveBar works</h2><div type="image" title="reservebar" height="900" width="1200" msid="75544496" hostid="261"></div>Before you start shopping, select which state you'd like to have your order shipped to in the top right section of the screen, just below "Customer Service" and to the left of "Corp Gifts."Then — and this might be our favorite part about ReserveBar — you can shop by category and subcategory based on everything from vintage to gift sets, limited offerings, and quality. This type of curation is smart and helpful; for example, under Scotch, the drop-down tab lets you choose between "luxury," "single malt," and "blended."If it's in your budget, <a href="https://www.pjatr.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fcollections%2Fluxury-collection" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">the "Rare and Exceptional" selection</a> is worth a look and potential sip.<h2>The ordering process</h2>Before you order anything, scour the website and check the retailer's <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ReserveBar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Facebook page</a>, which often posts deals you might not otherwise find.We ordered from ReserveBar as regular customers using a gift code on April 15, in the afternoon, and our box arrived on April 21 at midday, through economy or ground shipping. Everything was safe and sound thanks to empty cardboard inserts and bubble-wrap. I went for a couple of gift sets for upcoming occasions as well as one just for me: a bottle of <a href="https://www.pntrs.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fproducts%2Fdom-ruinart-blanc-vintage" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blanc 2007</a>, a bottle of <a href="https://www.pntra.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dgoslings%2Bold" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Goslings Family Reserve Old Rum</a> with a pair of Dartington glasses, and a bottle of <a href="https://www.pntra.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fproducts%2Fremy-martin-xo-excellence-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Remy Martin XO</a>, also with a pair of (Remy Martin) glasses. Prices were comparable elsewhere, and while some items were a few dollars more on ReserveBar, I felt it was worth it when my purchases arrived so elegantly packaged. It's important to know that some wines and spirits can't be shipped to certain states — on the right side of every product page, you'll find a list of places that particular bottle can be shipped to. Liquor laws in the US are tricky; add online delivery and it's a conundrum, not so much for you but for retailers.As with any alcohol delivery service, ReserveBar requires someone 21 or older to be present with valid ID to accept the order. <h2>Does ReserveBar have any deals?</h2>Yes.While a lot of this stuff is available on other popular online liquor stores, ReserveBar stands out for its luxury packaging and customization, as well as its occasional but outstanding sales, like <a href="https://www.pntrs.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fproducts%2Fjohnnie-walker-white-walker-blended-scotch-whisky" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Johnnie Walker's White Walker (Game of Thrones) edition for $39</a> (you save $26) or <a href="https://www.pjatr.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2Fproducts%2Fhennessy-privilege" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Hennessy VSOP Privilège for $55</a> (you save $10), which are running now. For free shipping on orders of $150, use the code "SHIP150".<h2>The bottom line</h2>ReserveBar is the place to go when you want to give a personalized present, or something a little more special than a generic bottle of scotch or Bourdeaux with a nylon bow on it. It's where you turn for custom engravings, fancy crystal and barware sets, gift baskets full of top-shelf liquors and luxury snacks, and so on. ReserveBar is not geared toward facilitating regular orders, and while you will find a selection of middle- and lower-shelf brands, it will do you well to compare prices before completing your purchase. <h2><a href="https://www.pntra.com/t/TUJGRk5HTUJGSEhLR01CRkxGRUtJ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reservebar.com%2F" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow sponsored nofollow sponsored">Shop premium spirits at ReserveBar </a></h2>

Be honest&#xa0;- the best gifts often come in a glass bottle.
That said, sometimes the holiday season requires a bit of budgeting. But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy a quality bottle of liquor.
Business Insider turned to&#xa0;Robert Haynes Peterson, a writer and liquor expert; Pam Wiznitzer, bartender at NYC cocktail standout The Dead Rabbit; Danny Neff; bartender at The Bar Room; and Jessie Dure of American Whiskey,&#xa0;to compile a list of 12 bottles under $27 that are actually really great.
Whether you're looking for yourself or shopping around for friends, be sure to give these a shot.

The new shop, which is currently under construction, is located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn and is one of 37 applications for a liquor license in the area.
Some locals aren't in favor of the retailer's presence in the hipster neighborhood in the first place. The effort to get a liquor license has them at further odds with the company. If Urban Outfitters gets the license, that means one fewer bar or restaurant has an opportunity in the area.
"The whole point of bars in this neighborhood is that they are owned by people who live here, they are small local businesses," Alicia Cantor-Palm, 29, told The Daily News. "It doesn't make sense for (Urban Outfitters) to be here anyway." 
The company has not issued any comments about the application and intentions for the store.
There has been an <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/brooklyn/chain-clothing-store-liquor-license-application-raises-eyebrows-williamsburg-article-1.1455516">increasing number of applicants</a> for liquor licenses in the Williamsburg and Greenpoint areas of Brooklyn, which could affect the likelihood of applicants receving one. Aside from that, some don't think it would even make sense for Urban Outfitters to sell alcohol.
"I can't think of a circumstance for which it would be appropriate for Urban Outfitters to have a liquor license," City Councilman Stephen Levin (D-Greenpoint) said in a statement. "We must ask ourselves, 'Do we really want people drunk when they are buying their skinny jeans and ironic t-shirts?'"
Urban Outfitters seems to think so.
