Best Answer

If this question is with regard to the United States, the 1920s were an era in which any sale, manufacture, or transportation of alcoholic beverages was banned with the National Prohibition Act. Bringing alcohol to a dinner party, would have been frowned upon in many homes, as it was illegal. Many Americans considered alcohol to be an evil of society, which lead to the 18th Amendment being passed in the first place.

That being said, there were many others who didn't consider alcohol evil, and found ways to drink alcohol regardless of the fact that it was against the law. 'Bootleggers' thrived, as did 'speakeasy' clubs, and home winemakers. However, as this question is under the category "Manners and Etiquette", etiquette dictates that one does not bring an illegal, or banned substance, into another person's home to which one has been invited as a guest.Beer or gin.
