Compliance checks by law enforcement determine whether or not alcohol outlets are selling to people who are under 21. Compliance checks are a proven strategy that has been effective in many Minnesota communities and across the country. Retailer education helps alcohol retailers understand the importance of not providing alcohol to youth. What’s the Big Deal? Underage Drinking in Minnesota. This brochure examines the physical, social, behavioral and legal consequences of underage alcohol use. It also covers the penalties asso- ciated with underage consumption and providing alcohol to minors. For law enforcement, the brochure provides a list of Minnesota State Laws regarding illegal alcohol use and sales.
