HSDF’s influence grew far before it began pushing to restrict the operating hours of establishments like Felipe’s Taqueria and the soon-to-come IHOP. Though Grendel’s Den needed six years to gain a liquor license due to a state law “allowing a church to prevent restaurants from serving alcohol within 500 feet of its door,” the HSDF vocally supported withholding the license for even less convincing reasons—HSDF felt the Square already had an adequate number of restaurants selling liquor. Legal Seafoods?...
Perhaps the parade of pastel bottles just beyond the cosmetics aisle is inevitable--at least in states like California, where wine may be sold beside grocery items. For while men continue to do the bulk of the nation's beer and hard-liquor buying, new surveys by Gallup and by Adams Media confirm that women make 55% of U.S. wine purchases. With that information in hand, wine marketers, after decades of ignoring women, are suddenly chasing them like dogs after a bone. "I just wish they wouldn't resort to stereotyping and patronizing us in the process," complains Mary Ewing...
...recent alum, Jill Hopman, says she saw members of the team chugging shots of liquor and shouting "Duke lacrosse" at Charlie's, a popular student hangout, on Saturday, March 25, a full day after the allegations crept into the news. The Duke administration had already decided to forfeit that day's game against Georgetown as punishment for the underage drinking at the party.

...blossoms? From death stares to drapes in three easy steps. Vultaggio and partner John Ferolito established a semisuccessful beer distributorship before trying to produce their own brands. Their first choices were a little less refined than mandarin-orange-flavored green tea sweetened with honey. They started Midnight Dragon malt liquor in the mid-1980s and, to promote it, printed thousands of posters featuring a scantily clad woman sipping Midnight Dragon through a straw and a vulgar tagline. Midnight Dragon peaked at 3 million cases annually. In the early '90s, Vultaggio's Crazy Horse malt liquor took off, until protests...
Imbibing in the Square may soon get a little bit easier. The Cambridge City Council approved a liquor license application yesterday for Manpriya, Inc., which hopes to open a liquor and package store on JFK Street. The Square has lacked a full-service liquor store since Harvard Provision closed in March 2003. The license was discussed by the Council at length because of recent local regulatory problems. The Knights of Columbus recently had their license revoked for three days in response to underage drinking at their lodge, and Libby’s Liquor Market is under investigation for violating...
