Does county law override state law on drinking?

no It depends. Counties can set more restrictive laws than states. The more restrictive laws will always dominate. "Dry counties" are a good example of this. The "state law" says that drinking is legal for anyone over the age of 21. The "county law" says it isn't legal, for anyone, at any age. The county law, in this case, is correct. If the county law was LESS restrictive than the state law, then the state law would dominate. But counties generally don't bother making laws that they know will be meaningless. Therefore, in almost every case where a county has a drinking law that differs from the state law, the county law will override the state law.

What law supersedes state law or condo by laws?

Federal law can supersede state law when it legislates the same area. This happens when a person can't obey both the Federal and the state law at the same time. When this is the case, it is the Federal law that the person should obey. Condo bylaws can be superseded by state or federal laws in the same manner. Further, state law can directly mandate how bylaws are written.
