The alcohol laws of the United States vary by state, of course, with some peculiar laws in some states.
Alabama:
Beer containers may not exceed 16 ounces (0.47 l).
Arkansas:
Only wine produced in-state may be sold in supermarkets.
California:
Sale or distribution of alcohol higher than 153 proof is illegal.
Kansas:
Kansas prohibited all alcohol from 1881 to 1948, and continued to prohibit on-premises sales of alcohol from 1949 to 1987. Sunday sales only have been allowed since 2005. Today, 29 counties still do not permit the on-premises sale of alcohol. 59 counties require a business to receive at least 30% of revenue from food sales to allow on-premises sale of alcohol.
Massachusetts:
No “Happy Hours” or other limited time discounts on alcoholic beverages. No fixed price open bar/all-you-can-drink (except at private functions). Only 2 drinks can be sold to an individual at any one time for on-premises consumption.
Nevada:
State law renders public intoxication legal, and explicitly prohibits any local or state law from making it a public offence.
New York:
All liquor stores must be owned by a single owner, who owns that store and lives within a certain distance of it — in effect banning chain liquor stores from the state.
Utah:
Restaurants and “Private Clubs” must buy from the State controlled store (no delivery) at retail prices. No alcohol served in restaurants without purchase of food. Only 3.2% beer available on tap.
Wisconsin:
Wisconsin permits the consumption of alcohol by minors, provided they are being supervised by parents/guardians.
