Where to buy liquor in Philadelphia

Some wine bars and restaurants are selling red, white and bubbly varieties, while bottle shops and breweries are selling beers and ciders. 

But if you're looking for liquor during the coronavirus crisis in Philadelphia, it's a little harder to find.

To help stop the spread of COVID-19, Fine Wine & Good Spirits locations across Pennsylvania have been closed since March 17, and although the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board recently opened its online store for limited sales, it only permits a certain number of visitors and orders per day.

Instead of getting frustrated with the website, you can instead order liquor directly from local distilleries.
