It would be really cool to have a key of the map to know exactly which colors stood for what.
I agree. In my experience, Utah is much more restrictive than much of say Western North Carolina. What makes a place yellow?

Semi-dry pisses me off more than Dry. Come on Baptists......there's no such thing as a little sinning.

I grew up in a dry county, there was a liquor store at the border for the neighboring "wet" counties, and it seems like they were the victims of a weekly hold-up, since the stores were essentially in the middle of nowhere.
Seems so dumb now. Dry, then the stupid blue laws that prevented Sunday purchase, to normalcy, to drones delivering kegs...

Mississippi has more blue than I would have guessed.

No restrictions in the delta. Gotta be drunk if you're gonna make it through life there.

Probably no Sunday sales, no sales between certain hours late at night, or maybe even a wet city in a dry county. That would be my guess.

LOL at "no restrictions" Utah. But you have to buy it from the government.

Utah restricts ABV of beer but not any sales which is surprising if you go to the extent of regulating beer.
They have so many goofy rules on drinking establishments, though. Is this map just looking at the retail end?

Michigan, what an overall shithole

Yellow is semi dry which usually mean localities can be dry in those counties
I live in a yellow parish. What it means here is that wards within the parish can vote themselves completrly dry. Those where liquor is sold can only sell it before 10 PM and not on Sundays or holidays. Bars are allowed subject to the same restrictions as above but there are currently only one or two.
When I was growing up it was compleyely dry. You had to drive to the parish line or go to a bootlegger, of which there were many. A girl I was in school with's father had a furniture store but as a sideline could get you any booze you wanted.

I live in a semi dry county in MS.alcohol sales are ok in city limits but rest of county is dry. Also no hard liquor sales outside of a few restaurants. I have to cross the county line to buy fire water

That map is not accurate

What’s up with that one county in South Dakota?
Firewater is bad for the natives.
Is that what's going on in the North Pole area of Alaska? Who knew they were regulating anything up there?

Kentucky hmm wonder why.. They're known for their bourbon production. I think its all crooked. I guarantee you that businesses in these wet counties pay and lobby to the state to keep the dry counties dry.
Worked in Arkansas a lot and would see people leave from the mill, drive in a line of cars all the way to the county line where the closest liquor store was. I bet you anything that the liquor store pays somebody off from that dry county next to it.

Still can't believe this exists in 2021.
Mosr dry counties are in the South, of course, because why wouldn't it be the South?

I would have never known the county I've spent most of my life in is super dry... I guess you learn something new every day

That's a bullshite map. Shows almost all of TN to be semi-dry.
I googled and several websites show the same information with very recent updates, but are completely false.

Didn't realize Minnesota changed its law to allow alcohol sales on Sunday.
ETA: But grocery stores still can't sell beer above 3.2% ABV or liquor
I too was thinking MN should be yellow...
As I recall, bars could be open but no carryouts.
Like that made any sense.
