Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
If stocking up on booze for the week, take note: The SuperTarget at 4301 East Virginia Avenue in Glendale has temporarily suspended beer, wine and spirits sales in preparation for the launch of something bigger and better.
Rather than just a single aisle of bottles and cans, Target's new Wine & Spirits store will be a full-sized shop located within the same walls. There won't be a separate outside entrance, though, so customers will still be able to get their grocery, clothing, electronics and adult beverage needs all under one roof.
As of yesterday, a sign at the entrance noted that liquor sales would resume on February 25, but a call to the store this morning indicated it would be Friday, not Thursday.
Colorado liquor laws prohibit liquor-store owners from operating multiple locations, so the Glendale superstore is the only Target in Colorado that sells anything more than 3.2 percent beer.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
