Utah
Utah might have some of the strictest alcohol laws in the country, which may be explained by the large Mormon population in the state (Mormons don't drink alcohol). Until 2017, Utah had what's called a "Zion Curtain," which forced bartenders to mix and poor drinks out of customers' sight. Now, the biggest restrictions come in your glass: no beers with greater than 4 percent alcohol are available on tap, though you can get stronger beers by the bottle. You also can't order doubles of any cocktail. The state has calibrated dispensing systems that distribute no more than 1.5 oz of alcohol per drink. Happy Hour deals are also banned, to prevent excessive drinking. There's also an "intent to dine" law, which states that customers must order some kind of food if they're planning to drink. Whew! That one was a doozy.
