The 18th Amendment to the US Constitution, ratified in 1919, prohibited the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors.

The Prohibition era ended in 1933 with the ratification of the 21st Amendment, which repealed the 18th Amendment and restored the legal sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages.
