A dry state is a state or territory within a country where the sale, purchase, or consumption of alcoholic beverages is prohibited or highly restricted by law. The term "dry state" is commonly used in the United States to refer to states that have some form of alcohol prohibition.
In a dry state, the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages may be illegal, or there may be strict regulations in place governing the sale and consumption of alcohol. For example, in some dry states, the sale of alcohol is restricted to state-run stores, and individuals may be required to obtain permits or licenses to purchase alcohol.
