Refilling liquor bottles is a serious offense for a liquor license. It is a more serious offense to the customer. The customer has to wonder why would a bar refill a liquor bottle, wouldn’t the new bottle that is opened be filled?

The contents of the refilled liquor bottles ranged from cheap liquor being substitute for premium brands to rubbing alcohol with food coloring.
