Question 1

What is A.L.S.O.?

Accepted Answer

The Associated Liquor Stores of Oregon (A.L.S.O.) is a guild representing the majority of Oregon’s liquor store owners — all independently owned small businesses, not state-run outlets. Each store is locally owned and operated by individuals who are neither state nor OLCC employees.

Question 2

What is included in the ticket price?

Accepted Answer

Included are  tasting samples from any of the 100+ distilled spirits, wine, beer, or other vendors at the show, a reusable bag to store any samples or swag, buffet-style hors d'oeuvres, and the opportunity to bid on exclusive items and experiences in the auction!

Question 3

Did you say auction? How do I get in on the action?!

Accepted Answer

Register for the access code to bid on industry-exclusive prizes! Past swag includes branded Solo stoves, SUPs, bicycles, grills, coolers, appliances, patio furniture & more. Past experiences include tours & tastings, vacation packages, gift cards, &  event tickets! Open to paid attendees only.

Question 4

I have a mature under 21 year old who would like to attend but not drink. Is this allowed?

Accepted Answer

For the safety and compliance of all attendees, only individuals aged 21 and over with valid ID will be permitted entry. We are seriously committed to responsible vending and work hard to prevent controlled substances from reaching minors.

Question 5

What transit options are available?

Accepted Answer

For your safety and convenience, we recommend using ride-share services to attend the tasting event. We strongly discourage driving. Heads up that Tri-Met Bus 47 does not run on weekends. Plan ahead and enjoy responsibly—let someone sober do the driving!

Question 6

Where can I learn more about A.L.S.O. or privatization?

Accepted Answer

Feel free to chat with any of our board members at the trade show — we’d love to connect! You can also learn more at www.LiquorAgentsOR.com.
