Liquor laws...
I could spend the rest of the night on this ****.
1) There is no beer anywhere in Utah greater than 4%abv on tap.
2) Micro breweries can sell their own bottled beer that is greater than 4%abv on-site. And they can even refrigerate it.
3) Most restaurants sell bottled beer that is greater than 4%abv.
4) Someone correct me if I'm wrong, you can't order a double cocktail, as in you can't get a double jack and coke. But funny enough, you can order a jack and coke and get a shot of jack as a "side-car" with your jack and coke.
5) You can not have more than two drinks per person at any time (used to be 1). So if you are with a group and you walk up to the bar and order drinks for everyone they will either need to deliver them to each person or you will need to get enough people up to the bar to make it so that there are no more than 2 drinks per person. Same thing with ordering a pitcher of beer. One person cannot order a pitcher, you need at least two people to get a pitcher.
6) You can get pretty much anything at the state run liquor stores. But none of it is refrigerated, and they don't sell anything at all except booze. No soft drinks, no limes, no ice, just alcohol.
7) I mentioned they can't sell you a double...but there's a loophole. Any mixed drink can only have 1oz of the primary hard liquor in it, but they can add other liquor as "flavoring" so locals will order stuff like long island ice teas and at the right kind of place with the right kind of bartender you might get upwards of 4oz of liquor in your drink.
