Link Beverages Store
Welcome to Link Beverages!

In June of 1965 Link Beverages was established. The owners were Thelma Natalie Link and Granville Marshall Link. They operated the business out of a 1200 square foot store front on the bottom of a two story house. their son Skip was working at the Bethlehem Steel Company at the time. Skip would help his parents on the weekends. Thelma and Granville wanted to sell the business after a short time. Skip and his wife Dottie purchased the business from their parents. Two years later the business was relocated one mile south of the original location. Late at night after work Skip would lay in the garlic field behind the store, sipping on a beer. Staring up at the stars he'd close his eyes and dream of having a huge beer store one day. Today he lives that dream. His 8000 square foot retail location was established in 1974. The business has grown since that time. Link Beverages is now one of the largest retail beer locations in the Lehigh Valley. Link Beverages stocks hundreds of different styles of beer from crafts to microbrews to imports to domestics. Beer & Cigar icon

Beer Distributors vs. Super Markets

In the past 3-4 years super markets and some convenience stores have been granted the right to sell beer by the PLCB. The PLCB has regulations that prohibit selling beer in such venues. However, the PLCB is granting licenses to these locations on a regular basis. Follow the money and the truth will be found. The beer distributors have won every lawsuit filed against these licenses. The reason I am writing this is to clear up some common misconceptions. I want to point out the facts in this matter. Beer Distributors are only allowed to sell beer, soda, snacks, and tobacco. The PLCB set these regulations and we follow them. We will get fined and shut down for selling milk or any other grocery related item. Knowing that, do you think it is right for super markets to sell beer? Beer is our main source of income. Beer is just another SKU for a super market. Beer distributors are only allowed to sell cases of beer. We are inconvenient by PLCB design. My opinion is that the state should allow beer distributors to sell six packs. This would allow us to be better retailers for our customers. Big business can affect change by powerful lobbying. Break the law long enough to make it seem like it is the norm and then change will come. Some of our politicians are easily bought. Small business doesn’t have the same affect. Call your local Representative and Senator and tell them to support HB2203 and SB1133. These bills will allow us to sell six packs



Please remember ...

Opinion poll is coming soon

Beer should always be served with two fingers of head, at a temperature of 40°F, but never in a frozen glass, because the melting of the interior film of ice adds water. The head should be delicate yet persistent, so that it adheres to the glass. It should have a bright color and a frothy appearance.
