Historically, off-premises Sunday sales of spirits were banned, and all liquor stores were closed. On November 8, 1966, Washington state voters adopted Initiative 229, repealing the so-called "Blue Law," which had been enacted in 1909. Consumers still had the option of purchasing beer or wine from grocery stores or on-premises spirits from bars and restaurants. In 2005, the state began allowing off-premises spirits sales in select stores on Sundays from noon to 5 p.m.

On the election of November 8, 2011, voters passed Initiative 1183, which brought several changes to the liquor distribution and retailing system. The most significant of these changes were the end to the state monopoly on liquor sales and distribution. On June 1, 2012, Washington completed its transition to private liquor sales. Under 1183, spirits may only be sold in premises of at least 10,000 sq ft, generally including grocery stores, warehouse clubs, department stores, and some larger specialty shops.

The sale of alcohol for both on and off-premises consumption is prohibited between the hours of 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. daily.[82]

I buy beer whenever I want to

But you've only been doing so since the second Obama administration!

Um, no.

Whoops, my mistake, you still cannot buy beer at 3 am, no matter how much you want to.

Honest to god what sounds delicious to me right now is a fucking Newcastle Brown and I can't tell if that's hops exhaustion or just pandemic-induced nostalgia for the types of shitty bars where you drink Newcastle Brown.

I actually had Newcastle because of this same motivation and really enjoyed it. Not nearly enough brown ales on the market.

Newcastle Brown Ale is no longer available in the United States. A product labelled “Newcastle Brown Ale” is still sold but it is produced by Lagunitas Brewing Company and has little in common with the original product

Honestly devastated by this revelation. Where are the shitty beers of yesteryear

I am a normal person and I don’t want to buy beer at 3am

You've been conditioned by society and its laws, Bam. Just admit it.

Bacardi 151 was discontinued a few years ago too. The stalwarts of my college drinking days are slowly disappearing.

Coors Light abides.

Also, I have not tired of IPAs at all. I love them. Bitter, hazy, juicy. Give them all to me.

I love Guinness. I know that's worth exactly zero beer hipster points, but it's delicious and I never really feel hungover after a night on it, which is worth a lot to me these days.

Same here. I think it's the nitrogen and low abv. It's become a pretty standard session beer for me.

When I moved to Branford an Irish pub opened that same month around the corner, he made it a point to always have Beamish, Guinness and Murphys on at all times. Man I miss Beamish.

It was a key ingredient to any batch of party wop we’d brew. I faintly recall doing a shot once, and yeaaaah.

Yes. Hiding the hellfire behind fruit was the best way to go.
