What is an acceptable reason for an establishment employee to refuse service of alcohol?

If the customer appears too young
If the customer shows signs of intoxication
If the customer orders low-cost drinks
If the customer is not a regular

The correct answer is: If the customer shows signs of intoxication

Refusing service of alcohol when a customer shows signs of intoxication is not only acceptable but also a legal obligation for employees in establishments serving alcohol. This is part of responsible alcohol service practices designed to ensure the safety of patrons and the community. Serving alcohol to someone who is already intoxicated can lead to a variety of negative consequences, including potential accidents, injuries, or legal issues for the establishment. By recognizing the signs of intoxication—such as slurred speech, impaired coordination, or aggressive behavior—an employee balances their duty to serve while also prioritizing customer safety and compliance with TABC regulations. This proactive approach safeguards the establishment from liabilities that may arise from over-serving alcohol and promotes a safer environment for all patrons.
