I’m thinking in the U.S. and Canada. For example, if you’re on vacation, you’ve checked out of your hotel room and have several hours until your flight, and you have some cans of beer left over. I know you could sneakily drink them in a park or something, but I’m just curious if there’s any way to do it that’s legal.
when i lived down in texas (and a couple other places), the stores had can-sized paper bags for the big cans and for regular 12oz ones. and i’d see guys having clerks at the store ‘bag’ their beer (even each can of an intact six-pack)…
then see them a few lights down the road chugging one at a red.
When I worked in a grocery store years ago there was a “no naked alcohol rule.” In retrospect I don’t know if it was a thing the store did or if was a Liquor Control Commission reg. But it meant that part of training new clerks was explaining: these bags will hold 12 or 20oz cans, these hold a single 40oz, these will hold a full 6 pack, these are best for MD20/20 and Thunderbird…
