Fall 2020

Limited Release Sweepstakes

How will Alabama’s 2020 Limited Release Sweepstakes work?

The Alabama ABC will hold a Sweepstakes to determine the top 100 places in line at a Limited Release event. The event in question will be held at eight ABC Select Spirits Stores. The event will take place on Monday, November 9th, 2020. Winners are asked to be on the property starting at 8:00 AM at which time they will be checked in and will be able to claim their designated spot in line. All winners not in position and checked in by 9:45 AM will forfeit their position in line. The Store will open for business at 10:00 AM.

All current residents of Alabama of legal drinking age (21) wishing to enter the Fall 2020 Limited Release Sweepstakes will need to visit our Website and complete the registration form. Your name and address information MUST match your license exactly. Should you win a place in line at our event and the name on your ID does not match the entry exactly, you will forfeit your place in line. All Active military that are stationed in Alabama and can provide proof of residency are welcome to enter as well. The entry website will open at 8:00 AM on October 5, 2020 and will close at 5:00 PM on October 25th, 2020. All Limited Release Sweepstakes participants will receive notification and status updates by October 27th, 2020. If you are awarded a place in line, the notification will inform you of your position at that time.

Winning the Alabama ABC Select Spirits 2020 Limited Release Sweepstakes WILL NOT guarantee any specific product. It WILL guarantee you a position in line at our store on the day of the event. No need to camp out for three days. In fact, No one will be allowed on the property before 7:00 AM on the day of the event. Our Sweepstakes program will randomly select names to secure a position in the line that will form at 9:30 AM the day of the event. The first name chosen by our random selection Sweepstakes program will be awarded position number 1 in the line at the venue. The second name will be awarded position number 2 and so on until all 100 guaranteed positions are awarded.

At 8:00 AM on November 9th, 2020, the store will welcome any person of legal drinking age (21) that does not have a guaranteed position in line to participate in the walk-up line. The participants in this line will be allowed to enter the store in the order in which they arrived AFTER the Sweepstakes Winners have entered.

A valid Alabama driver’s license that matches the entry EXACTLY must be presented to take the awarded position. Active Duty Military stationed at an Alabama base with proof of residency will also be accepted. Absolutely no substitutes will be allowed. The person standing in line MUST be the person that entered and won the Sweepstakes. The name on the ID and the name on the entry sheet must match exactly. At 9:45 AM, all Sweepstakes winners NOT present and in line will be disqualified and the line will contract to absorb the missing participant’s locations. At this point the participants in the Walk-up line will fall in behind the Sweepstakes Winner’s line.

Once inside the venue, the participant will be able to choose no more than 1 bottle from Table A (Contains the most highly allocated products), 2 total bottles from Table B (Second most allocated products: Must be two different products), and up to 2 bottles of every other product available in the release and in inventory at the selected location upon his or her entry.
