CLEAR LAKE, Iowa - Food delivery apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats have gained popularity all the more during the pandemic. Now, you may soon be able to order beer, whiskey or cabernet straight from your phone.
A bill that passed through the Iowa House would allow alcohol from restaurants, grocery and liquor stores to be delivered through an app. The legislation would require services and retailers to have an agreement that consists of the name and address of each participating business, and the delivery service involved. All of this would have to be electronically submitted to the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division.
