Store fro 20+ Years Prior To Selling Business Approximately 7 Years. Only a certain number of series 6, 7 (wine and beer only) and 9 (liquor store) licenses are allotted to each county. There were 66 active series 6 licenses in Yavapai County in 2015, according to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control (ADLLC).

This Yavapai series 7 liquor license is the license required by to open such an establishment. This license not only allows for the sale of beer and wine on-premises but also allows for a limited amount of off-sales. This is a license that rarely becomes available. It is a less expensive less common version of the series 6 liquor license.

The owners of the The Drunken Lass said business was going quite well for the first couple of years. It wasn’t until about last year they decided to cut costs by closing up shop on Mondays and Tuesdays. “We were open 365 days a year for the first six years,” bar manager and co-owner Mark Bowdish said. Now, Bowdish said he’s not sure what to do. “I don’t really want to get out,” Bowdish said. “I like our business, I like the bar, I’m really happy here.

But when you’re not breaking even, it’s time to start thinking of other options.” Bowdish and his business partner, Jennifer Sarmiento, opened The Drunken Lass nearly seven years ago at 218 W. Before that, it had been Brian’s Irish Pub.

Sarmiento, an optometrist in town, provided the funding to buy the bar and Bowdish provided the expertise to run it, Bowdish said. Like many industries, the bar business — especially in Prescott — is seasonal and leans heavily on holidays and special events, said Shannon Dizkerson, a bartender in Prescott Valley who sometimes fills in at The Drunken Lass. “It all depends on what time of year it is,” Dizkerson said. “But a lot of the bars have been a lot slower than they are used to.

Busy days are like New Year’s Eve and Halloween; those kind of days it’s packed. But the rest of the year, people just don’t go out as much.” The Drunken Lass is the third bar downtown whose owners have taken a serious look at their business and decided to make a significant change. Hooligan’s Irish Pub on Whiskey Row shuttered its doors about two months when its owners simply wanted to get out of the business, and Brick & Bones Moonshine Bar and Bistro is currently closed as its owners are reportedly remodeling and restructuring the establishment to attract more patrons.

Unless Bowdish and Sarmiento manage to sell The Drunken Lass soon, Bowdish’s goal is to make it to St. Patrick’s Day and hopefully flip a profit from that point through the summer. “Things usually turn around a little bit after St.

Paddy’s Day,” Bowdish said. Until that proves true, he’s hoping he can squeak by financially and not have to just close the place down, which he could do quite easily considering he’s on a month-to-month lease. “We’re taking it day-by-day,” Bowdish said.

Costs of running a bar The costs of operating a bar can range substantially depending on what type of establishment it is and how it is run. There are 21 different types of liquor licenses in Arizona. A series 6 liquor license is for a typical bar one would find on Whiskey Row and allows those businesses to sell and serve beer, wine and hard liquor — both on their premises and to go (in concealed containers and cannot exceed 30 percent of the establishment’s sales). Only a certain number of series 6, 7 (wine and beer only) and 9 (liquor store) licenses are allotted to each county.

There were 66 active series 6 licenses in Yavapai County in 2015, according to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control (ADLLC). There may have been more licenses in existence last year that were not counted because they were inactive. Once someone acquires a series 6, 7 or 9 license, they are free to sell that license on the open market.

In Yavapai County, series 6 licenses were last valued at $62,800 in 2010. That’s a decrease of $7,000 from the year before. A more recent valuation of a Yavapai County series 6 license is not available, for the county has not qualified for any additional licenses since. The county must experience a 10,000 or more population increase for the state to issue one additional license of each series (6, 7 and 9). However, Tommy Meredith, owner of Jersey Lilly Saloon, believes the value has gone down even further considering the economy’s slow recovery. “Fifty thousand is probably the going rate now,” Meredith said. “It was $80,000 when I bought it 15 years ago.” After acquiring a license, someone looking to run a bar in town then needs to address the annual and daily costs associated with the business.

These include a $250 annual license renewal fee and liquor liability insurance — which is reflective of yearly sales and can be in the tens of thousands of dollars, according to Matt Brassard, co-owner of Matt’s Saloon. Then there is usually a municipality tax of some sort. For Prescott, this comes in the form of a uniquely enforced annual liquor license permit fee. For an active series 6 license owner, this fee is $662 a year. Prescott does not charge such an annual fee for any other type of business outside of liquor license owners. In Prescott Valley, the business license fee for a series 6 license owner is $375 annually. Most other businesses in Prescott Valley only pay the general business license fee, which is $45 annually.

Another significant cost to a bar owner can be for live entertainment — if it’s offered. This can range substantially depending how often live entertainment is organized and what type it is. Brassard said 90 percent of the bands he hires are from out of town. He said he does this to bring in a variety of quality talent. “That’s a huge cost, because they have to travel here, they have to stay here so I pay a price for that,” Brassard said. Related to live music is another cost that’s a bitter pill to swallow for many bar owners: paying the annual bill to song licensing organizations such as the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP), Broadcast Music Inc.

(BMI) and the Society of European Stage Authors and Composers (SESAC). “They charge us $800 a year each,” Tommy at Jersey Lilly’s said. I’ve said over the phone to them ‘this is the worst check I have to write and I detest what you guys stand for and your ability to come in here and tell us how much we have to pay without any criteria except for what you create.” Other bar owners have a slightly different perspective. “Between ASCAP, SESAC and BMI, I’m at almost $10,000 a year just in music licenses,” Brassard said. “But we have a large capacity, we hold 300 people; so when they base it on your capacity, it’s a tough one to bite.

But I get it, these song writers and artists deserve their compensation as well.” That’s how Debra Stamm, owner of the Bird Cage Saloon, sees it as well. “A lot of bar owners try to get away with not paying ASCAP, SESAC and BMI, but it’s just something you have to do,” Stamm said. “It’s part of being a responsible bar owner.” Successful aspects of a Prescott bar It’s safe to say that there is no single offering or feature of a bar that is solely responsible for attracting patrons.

Many aspects can play into such an equation; be it location, live entertainment, variety of alcohol served, pricing of beverages, activities offered, unique environment or the all-encompassing atmosphere. Ask any bar owner in town what they believe their clientele value the most in their business and each will give a slightly different answer based on what they push in their advertisements to stand apart from the crowd. “Whiskey Row is Whiskey Row, but every bar has its own niche,” said Meredith. “You’ve got cowboy bars, kid bars, rock and roll bars, more adult bars — which we’re basically 30 and over here.” For Matt’s Saloon, which Brassard and Marco Espitia took over in 2003, a big one is live music. “We hold our bands to a high standard,” Brassard said. “We don’t just hire any band out there.

We feel that kind of helps set us apart from other businesses, maybe.” However, he believes nothing trumps the importance of consistency. “Whether that’s the hours that you’re open or the service that you provide,” Brassard said. “We haven’t changed a lot since day one as far as what we do.” Stamm, owner of the Bird Cage Saloon — which has been around since 1969 (despite burning down in 2012) — strongly agrees.

“Number one is consistency,” Stamm said. “Consistency in times of operation and the ‘KISS’ principle, Keep It Simple Stupid.” And for Lyzzard’s Lounge, it’s location and a mellow environment. “Our deal is, we’re off the row; we just want you to come in, have a good time and behave yourself,” said Lex Guinn, who has owned Lyzzard’s Lounge for eight years. Despite the differences, most of the bar owners will tell you they don’t like to see their local competition struggle, for that has the potential to negatively impact all of them.

“It’s hurtful when other bars close down,” Stamm said. “The more reasons people have to come downtown the better, in my estimation. People bar hop. And quite frankly, I think everybody needs a little competition to keep them on their toes.”.
