Alcoholic Beverage Services

228 dinningOur Liquor License restricts admission to members of your party and their guests only. Any attempt to include the general public by advertisement or any other means will be grounds to close our liquor facilities and/or cancel the function. All expenses incurred up to the time of cancellation will be the responsibility of the Lessee.

If alcoholic beverages are being served, the State minimum age for consumption must be observed. All alcoholic beverages served on the property must be provided by Le Club Calumet. Unless the Lessee is hosting an open bar, the sale of all beverages is cash only. An ATM is available. Alcohol sales and service are regulated by Maine law through the Maine Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages. Le Club Calumet, as a Liquor Licensee, is responsible for adhering to Maine law on the sale and service of alcohol. As a Liquor Licensee or as required by our liquor liability insurance, Le Club Calumet reserves the right to refuse the sale or service of alcohol permitted to be sold or served under Maine law.

No alcoholic beverages may be brought into or taken out of the building for consumption. Alcoholic beverages must be consumed inside the halls and are not allowed in the parking area or beyond the facility doorways leading outside the facility, as this would constitute a violation of State Liquor Laws and our Liquor License.
