If a product is distributed in the state of Colorado and our distributors have it in-stock, we can get it. The best way to make a special request for any specific product is to send an email to the head of the respective department (Dan Chacon for beer, Sheila Carey for wine or Trevor Williams for liquor) with the information on the product you are looking for and they will let you know whether or not they can get it for you and then they can set up an order for you. Please send an email to info@argonautliquor .

I am over 21 years old. Do you need to see my ID?

Liquor laws in Colorado state that we are legally obligated to ask anyone who appears to be under the age of 50 to ask for an ID. If you are unable to provide an ID when requested, we cannot sell to you.

Can you take my temporary ID?

We accept Colorado temporary IDs only if they are accompanied by your previous voided ID.

Why does your delivery driver need to see and write down my date of birth and driver’s license number even though I am obviously 21 years old or you have delivered to me before?

We are following Colorado Regulation 47-426, Paragraph B1. B2. and B3. Even though you may be a regular delivery customer or are over 21 years old, we do require that you provide your license each time we complete a delivery. Our drivers do not have access to your private information that we keep on file to keep our delivery logs compliant. We greatly appreciate your cooperation. If you cannot provide an ID at the time of delivery unfortunately, we cannot deliver to you.

Do you deliver kegs?

A flat delivery service fee will be applied based on your location. There will be an additional $10.00 fee per keg delivered. Kegs can only be delivered to main floor. We will deliver to specific location if an elevator is available. We cannot pull kegs upstairs. The person who orders and pays for kegs over the phone must be present at time of the keg delivery with ID. We will not deliver to hotels, dorms, restaurants, or parks. Exceptions can be made – please call to speak to our order department between 8:00 am – 6:00 pm to discuss your particular situation to see if we can legally accommodate your request.

What kegs do you have in stock?

We stock a variety of local craft, import and domestic kegs. We have a list on our website that shows all the kegs that our distributors have made available to us. If you give us at least three business days, we can order the kegs shown on that list. Availability is not a guarantee until the distributor confirms it is in stock.

Do you take returns?

Yes, we will gladly accept returns on unused product. All labels and seals must be intact and in resell able condition. Beer must be in full original packaging (6 pack, 12 pack, etc.) If you do not have a receipt and we have no record of your purchase on your Preferred Shopper Account, we will gladly issue a store credit at the last sale price. If you do have a receipt or we can verify your purchase through your Preferred Shopper Account, we will issue a refund back via the original payment method. A 10% restocking fee will be applied if you return more than 30% of your original order. In the occasional case of spoiled product please bring back as much of the spoiled product in the original packaging as possible.

Do you offer a discount for non-profits?

We do offer all non-profit 501(c)(3) organizations a 15% charitable discount on all non-sale items.

What do you need to process my purchase as tax exempt?

We need a City and County of Denver Exemption letter. We also need a State of Colorado Exemption Certificate or IRS 501 c 3 designation letter. Payment must be made directly by the tax-exempt organization via check, credit card or cash. Cash purchases must be accompanied by a PO from your organization. Upon the completion of Denver’s required tax exemption determination form, which we will provide, the manager on duty will remove/adjust sales tax from your order as necessary. You can also call ahead to speak with our office to get your account set up ahead of time and make sure you have everything you need.

Would you be willing to donate to our charity?

In order to fairly process all donation requests, we have an online application for donations under our Donation Request page. To help as much of our community as possible, we do offer a 15% discount to all non-profit organizations. Just bring us a copy of your 501(c) (3) designation letter.

Do you have boxes I can use for moving?

We do not give out boxes. We try to reuse all our resources to pack our customers’ purchases in order to do our best to be environmentally friendly.

Do you allow kids in your store?

Do you allow dogs in your store?

We can only legally permit service animals in our store.

Do you have Blantons, W.L. Weller or Pappy Van Winkle in stock?

We get a very limited allocation of these products throughout the year. One of the many ways you will have an opportunity to purchase a bottle of these extremely rare items is through an in-store lottery. We use some of our allocation for contests, promotions and charity events for local non-profits as well throughout the year. The best way to find out about these promotions is to follow us on social media – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter you will be notified of these promotions.

Do you have any Russian River Brewing products?

We get periodic shipments of Russian River products from our distributor about every 4-6 weeks.
