Either ban it all or serve it all. Beer and wine have such strong lobbys that they are excluded as if they're non-intoxicating.
The real issue is not what is served, but how much. Three or four drink limits on beer and two drink limits on wine and booze will nanny some of the perceived problems away. Right now, you can go to the Taste of Minnesota or Cinco De Mayo and drink 15-20 beers if you got the money. How is serving booze any different?
