Following the well-trodden footsteps of the legendary Beer Baron, the still-madly-delivering Jimmy Brings, CBD-based LiquorDrop, Manly's Dial-A-Drink and Leichhardt-founded QuickBottle, there's a new on-demand alcohol delivery service in town: WineRun.

Launching this Thursday, July 9 and delivering seven nights a week, WineRun offers a limited range of wine, beer, spirits and snacks which they deliver via scooter in 30 minutes. Yep, 30 minutes. But hold your horses, there's a location limit, of course. WineRun will start off delivering to Sydney's lower north shore, with plans to perfect the delivery service before expanding.

Contrary to our initial assumptions, WineRun isn't the half-baked idea of frustrated college kids dealing with Sydney's 10pm bottle shop curfew. Founded by Daniel Sofo, who operates Neutral Bay's Firefly and The Italian in Willoughby, WineRun comes from the brain of a hardworking Sydney bar owner seeing a niche in the market (delivery is the future of food and bev, people).

"Being a bar owner means I know a thing or two about good drinks," says Sofo. "I've done the hard yards sifting the tasty from the ordinary and the good value from the overpriced. The result is the seventy wines, craft beers and spirits I've featured at WineRun. It isn't a huge collection, but i'm confident you'll love what's there, especially since we'll deliver it when you need it."

So how can you get WineRun to scoot over to your house? All orders are placed online, through crew's website. WineRun operates between 5.30 and 10pm daily, delivering to Sydney's lower north shore only.

WineRun launches on Thursday, July 9. Head to the website to place your order.
