An Act To Amend Title 4 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Alcoholic Liquors Sold For Off-premise Consumption.

Complete·5/19/26

Allows restaurants and similar establishments to sell alcoholic liquors for off-premise consumption with certain restrictions.

The bill amends Delaware Code to allow restaurants, brewpubs, taverns, and taprooms with valid on-premise licenses to sell alcoholic liquors for take-out, curbside, drive-through, or delivery services. These sales must be conducted through a third-party delivery license, and the Commissioner can limit the quantity per customer. The alcoholic beverages must be securely sealed and served by certified servers. The bill also outlines specific requirements for the containers and the delivery process.
