Town Liquors Shut Down for 10 Days


Town Liquors at 1326 Wisconsin Ave., NW, has been shut down by the D.C. Alcoholic Beverage Control Board for serving to minors. Because of the violation, the board also fined the business $5,000. The liquor license for Town Liquors was suspended from Feb. 23 to March 4.

“It’s unfortunate,” said Bill Starrels, the Georgetown Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner who heads up the local ANC’s alcoholic beverage committee. “But they have to do what it takes not to serve minors. The rules are the rules.”

Located next to the Georgetown Inn, Town Liquors is one of only five liquor stores in Georgetown.
