You can buy the 3.2% beer, but not the real thing. It works in a pinchYeah, I figured that would be the response I got.

That really sucks, man. You should move to Texas. We only have it half wrong on Sundays.You can buy the 3.2% beer, but not the real thing. It works in a pinch
Any beer after 12:00 PM on Sunday, but no liquor at all on Sunday or past 9:00 PM Monday–Saturday. It isn't as restrictive as some states but it still seems lame to me. If I am going to a barbecue on a Sunday afternoon and I want to get a bottle of whisky to make cocktails to enjoy at the party why should I not be able to do that?That really sucks, man.

You should be able to.Any beer after 12:00 PM on Sunday, but no liquor at all on Sunday or past 9:00 PM Monday–Saturday. It isn't as restrictive as some states but it still seems lame to me.

No doubt. Personally even as someone who drinks, though mostly just beer these days, the sales time laws very rarely affect me. That doesn't mean I agree with it though. Seems very antiquated.You should be able to.
It doesn't really affect me much, either. But, there have been times I have had to delay going to the grocery store on Sundays because I wanted to buy beer while I was there and it was before noon. As you say, it is a really antiquated law.No doubt. Personally even as someone who drinks, though mostly just beer these days, the sales time laws very rarely affect me. That doesn't mean I agree with it though. Seems very antiquated.
I've only seen the ABC stores in NC.Most states in the south have ABC stores...state controlled liquor, sold M-Sat, 10-9 only.
Kind of weird when you can go to the Rite Aid in California and buy a bottle of scotch at any time.
No such thing as less government.Or Wine, or liquor. 3.2 beer can be sold cold, but why would you want it? Another thing is liquor stores aren't allowed to sell anything but alchohol. No mixes. no ice, no glasses. Not even a bottle opener or a wine screw. For a state that hates government interferance and loves the free market there are some dumb ass laws here
I kind of selfishly like that law because it gives my wife a guaranteed day off every week.Any beer after 12:00 PM on Sunday, but no liquor at all on Sunday or past 9:00 PM Monday–Saturday. It isn't as restrictive as some states but it still seems lame to me.

Is he not aware that his rights are granted from government also. All rights are indeed a result o f government decree.I've got a friend who moved here from Florida that was angry about not being able to buy beer before noon on Sunday. He was like, "why are they messin with my rights?!!" Easy there, friend...just wait till noon or plan a little better.
You don't believe in inalienable human rights?Is he not aware that his rights are granted from government also. All rights are indeed a result o f government decree.
I believe in them but I suppose the question is who grants them?You don't believe in inalienable human rights?
The aliens, of course.I believe in them but I suppose the question is who grants them?
120 Minute is really good. So high in alcohol though that it reminds me of a barleywine. Glad you got to try it since you've been on the lookout for a long time but $25 for a 9 oz pour?! Jesus. That is serious bullshit. When I get it in bottles they generally are about $10 or so for a 12 oz bottle. I get that a bar is going to charge more but that is going way over the top with the mark up.
