Age Verification Policy
Last updated: November 2026
Maryland Law
Maryland law prohibits the sale of alcohol to anyone under 21 years of age. It is illegal to use a false ID or misrepresent your age to purchase alcohol.
Our Policy
Every customer, every time: We verify age for 100% of alcohol purchases, regardless of apparent age.
Acceptable Forms of ID
- Driver's license (any U.S. state)
- State-issued ID card
- U.S. Passport
- Military ID
- Any valid government-issued photo identification showing date of birth
ID Must Be
- Valid (not expired)
- Government-issued
- Include a photo
- Show your date of birth
For Online Orders
At Pickup
- You must present valid ID when picking up your order
- Our staff will verify your ID matches the name on the order and that you are 21+
- If you cannot provide valid ID, we cannot complete the sale
At Delivery
- A Parkville store employee personally makes every alcohol delivery (we do not use third-party delivery services)
- Our delivery employee will verify your ID at your door, every delivery, no exceptions
- You must be present to receive the order (someone else cannot accept it unless they also provide valid 21+ ID)
- If valid ID cannot be verified, the delivery will not be completed and the order will be returned
Zero Tolerance
- We will refuse any sale if we cannot verify age
- We will refuse any sale if ID appears altered, fake, or expired
- Our staff is trained to detect false IDs and will refuse service if fraud is suspected
Website Age Gate
When you first visit our website, you must confirm you are 21 or older. This is a preliminary screen and does NOT replace the requirement for physical ID verification at pickup or delivery.
