According to MPRB Ordinance PB2-17. “No person shall take, use, or have in or upon any park or parkway, any intoxicating liquor except as specifically authorized” in select Park Board locations. No kegs are allowed. 3.2 beer is not considered “intoxicating” liquor as it pertains to the ordinance. It is allowed for private consumption (cans only) in controlled designated areas in the regional park system, such as those reserved by the public for picnics. A permit is not required. No 3.2 beer is allowed in recreation centers or on that park’s property. No alcohol can be given away or sold to the general public without a permit, fenced-in area, City license, insurance and at a minimum two Park Police officers.
