Study Notes

Situations for Not Selling/Serving Alcoholic Beverages

Observing a table of four women becoming loud after consuming a bottle of wine and several mixed drinks may indicate intoxication, prompting refusal to serve more alcohol.
One woman at the table orders tequila shots, which raises concerns over potential over-consumption and public disturbance; serving additional drinks would be inappropriate.
A gentleman purchasing whiskey shows no signs of intoxication, as evidenced by his clear answers and sober appearance; this situation does not warrant refusal to sell.

Specific Concerns with Underage Drinking

A group of young-looking individuals in a store raises a red flag, especially if they are pooling money to buy alcoholic beverages; this could suggest an attempt to evade age restrictions.
Requesting ID from the purchasing member is essential to ensure legal age for alcohol purchase; a student ID may not suffice as proof of age if it does not indicate date of birth.

Four women at a table have shared a bottle of wine and consumed several mixed beverages.
Their intoxication levels appear to be rising, indicated by increased volume and noise.

Considerations for Serving Alcohol

Assess the level of intoxication of the women; visible signs include loud behavior and possible coordination issues.
Evaluate local laws and regulations regarding serving drinks to visibly intoxicated individuals.
Consider the impact on the customer experience, ensuring a safe and pleasant environment for all patrons.

Responsible Service

Prioritize the well-being of the women; serving more alcohol could lead to negative health effects.
