Question: Regarding the legal definition of 'intoxication' for the purpose of refusing service in Alberta, which statement is most accurate?
Answer options:
- A patron is considered intoxicated only if their Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) exceeds 0.08%. ✅ Intoxication is determined by observable physical and behavioural signs, regardless of BAC.
- A patron is intoxicated if they admit to feeling 'drunk' or 'buzzed'.
- Intoxication is primarily a medical diagnosis, requiring expert assessment.
Correct answer: Intoxication is determined by observable physical and behavioural signs, regardless of BAC.
Explanation: For the purpose of the AGLC Act and ProServe, 'intoxication' for refusing service is based on observable signs and behaviours, which servers are trained to identify. It is not solely dependent on a specific BAC level, as BAC can vary, and servers do not measure it. A patron's self-assessment is helpful but not the sole determinant, and intoxication for service refusal is a practical observation, not a medical diagnosis.
