Maine Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages & Lottery Operations

The Bureau, Commission and our partnerships with Pine State Spirits, Scientific Games International, lottery retailers, agency liquor stores and the liquor licensees throughout the state are committed to providing the citizens of Maine with outstanding customer service and superior products. The Bureau also has the important responsibility of enforcement and licensing of all liquor licensees in Maine.

 

BELLS: Coming Soon

On October 28, 2024, the Bureau will launch BELLS, a new digital system for liquor license applications, renewals, brand registrations, and more. Streamlining our processes, BELLS will replace outdated paper forms and provide an easier, more efficient experience for all licensees. Once we go live, visit https://alcohol.maine.gov to access the new system.

 

 

The Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages and Lottery Operations (BABLO) contracted with Linda Bosma, PhD, of Bosma Consulting, LLC to conduct a systematic assessment of Maine’s alcohol regulatory and enforcement capacity of the sale of alcoholic beverages, the overall alcohol regulatory and enforcement landscape across states and how Maine compares to other states. The study was funded by the National Alcohol Beverage Association through the Supplemental Education Award. Read the study (PDF).
