There is a Booze Souq (Qatar Distribution Company) you will need permission from your employer/ sponsor and 1000QAR to get a licence.
This is the only way you can buy alcohol for consumption at home.
You cannot buy it in the local super markets . . .
There are pubs and restaurants here where you can buy/ drink alcohol for consuption on the premises. It's not cheap! You'll be looking at a tenna easily for a pint!
You also need a membership card for any of the drinking pubs/ clubs and your Qatari ID, this will set you back about 30QAR and must be produced everytime you show up at your local.
My friend and I are making it a sport to see how many different ID cards for bars we can collect . . . childish, but you have to make your own fun here.
There is also a bar at the rugby club, you will need membership for that too.
More than you asked, but I am sure everyone will be happy to answer your questions.
