ELI5- Why are there times that alcohol cannot be purchased?

963 viewsOther

I live in New York State and recently our governor changed the liquor purchase time from 8a-8p to 10a-10p. You can buy beer from convenience stores at 8am-3am on Sundays like every other day but liquor is different. My question is why? Why is there a cutoff time?

In Wisconsin, you can drive to the bar at 9:30 at night and drink with your buddies until 2:30 and drive home. You can’t go to the store and buy a 6 pack in that time, though. You have no other choice, you have to go to the bars.
