STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, COLORADO-December 20, 2023-The City Clerk’s Office, which administers liquor licenses within the City of Steamboat Springs, would like to remind the community that Colorado liquor statutes prohibit alcohol sales on Christmas Day for several liquor licenses.
Alcohol sales are prohibited on Christmas Day for Retail Liquor Store licensees (licensed under 44-3-409, C.R.S.), Fermented Malt Beverage and Wine Off-Premises licensees (licensed under 44-4-104, C.R.S.), and Liquor Licensed Drugstore licensees (licensed under 44-3-410, C.R.S.).
Retailers who are licensed for on-premises consumption may continue to operate and conduct alcohol sales (including takeout and delivery sales) as their license type(s) have always had this ability on Christmas Day under the current statutory framework.
It is illegal to sell whiskey, wine, or beer to any person under twenty-one years of age, and it is illegal for any person under twenty-one years of age to possess or to attempt to purchase the same. Help keep the holidays safe and enjoyable for everyone.
