2. Beverage Alcohol

Legal Age to Purchase Beverage Alcohol 

Benjamin Bridge is a responsible retailer that abides by the provisions outlined in the Liquor Control Act (LCA) that specifies that all customers purchasing beverage alcohol must be of legal drinking age. To shop on benjaminbridge.com, customers must be of legal drinking age. Buyers must be prepared to present valid photo identification when the purchase is picked up at the Benjamin Bridge winery, or personally delivered to their residence.

Online customers can designate someone else to pick up their beverage alcohol purchases at the winery, by entering the other person’s first and last name, email, and phone number when they place the order.  Please be advised that upon pick-up of an online sales order, the identity of the buyer and age (as well, if applicable, of their designate) will be verified by a Benjamin Bridge employee.

We accept the following forms of acceptable photo ID:

• Provincial Driver's License*
• Provincial ID Card Canadian
• Permanent Resident Card
• Secure Certificate of Indian Status
• Out of Province Provincial Health Card (with picture)
• Government Issued Passport
• Canadian Citizen Certificate
• Canadian Firearms License

*The 30-day temporary driver’s license with the expired Driver’s License or ID card will be accepted only until the expiration date on the Temporary Driver’s License has expired. Expired ID will not be accepted on an on-going basis.

If you renewed your Driver’s License online and are awaiting your new card, a combination of the expired card and the digital or printed proof of renewal will be acceptable.

To accept delivery of a product containing alcohol, an individual must be at least 19 years or age or older and, upon request, provide proof in the form of a valid government-issued photo identification to Benjamin Bridge’s delivery partner, Canada Post.

If the person receiving the goods or picking up a delivery from a Canada Post pick-up location is unable or unwilling to provide satisfactory evidence of proof of age, Canada Post will be unable to deliver the product.
