Question: Who is ultimately responsible for ensuring that alcohol is served safely and legally in an establishment?
Answer options:
- The customer
- The server ✅ The licensee (owner/manager)

Correct answer: The licensee (owner/manager)
Explanation: While servers and bartenders have direct responsibilities, the licensee (the owner or person holding the liquor license) is ultimately responsible for ensuring that all alcohol is served safely and legally within their establishment. They are accountable for the actions of their staff. Customers are responsible for their own consumption but not the legality of service.
