Avoid 99% of Violations by Following Ten Basic Rules

  1. Alcohol may not be sold or served to anyone under 21 years old.
  2. Alcohol may not be possessed or consumed by anyone under 21 years old on your permitted premises, regardless of where the alcohol came from.
  3. Alcohol may not be sold or served to anyone who is intoxicated.
  4. Alcohol may not be sold or served outside the hours of 7 a.m. and 2 a.m. the following day, except that on Sunday, when sales and consumption may begin as late as 12 noon or as early as 10 a.m. if allowed by local ordinance.
  5. Consumption of alcohol is allowed at on-premises ABC permittees until 2:30 a.m., at which point all open containers of alcohol must be removed immediately from public areas and discarded.
  6. There can be no consuming alcohol while performing your designated job duties, even when the business is closed to the public.
  7. No controlled substances are allowed on any ABC permitted premises.
  8. ABC permittees must maintain alcohol invoices and receipts on the premises for three years and make them readily available for inspection.
  9. Mixed Beverages permittees must always have an employee at least 21 years old on the premises; beer and wine permittees must always have an employee at least 18 years old on the premises; and ABC permittees may employ minors between ages 16 and18 if the minor does not prepare, serve, sell, or deliver any alcoholic beverages.
