South Carolina law prohibits selling beer, wine, or alcoholic liquor to a person under 21 years of age.
Servers must understand that failing to require identification can be evidence of an underage-sale violation.

Alcohol service occurs inside a licensed or permitted business structure, and servers need to understand that permit rules affect daily service choices.
Retail sellers must display required underage-possession warning signs, and violations can carry criminal penalties.
