Ohio Liquor Control Approves Rule Banning Bar and Restaurant Alcohol Sales After 10 p.m.

The governor requested the ban given the recent spike in COVID-19 cases

On July 31, 2020, the Ohio Liquor Control Commission passed an emergency rule to prohibit the sale of alcohol at liquor-permitted establishments after 10 p.m.

Governor Mike DeWine asked the commission to enact the ruling saying he had "grave concerns" about the spread of coronavirus in those establishments.
