The 21st Amendment (1933) repealed the 18th Amendment (1919), which is also known as "prohibition" and banned the manufacture and sale of alcohol in the US.
(The ban on alcohol did not prohibit its consumption, and was widely ignored, leading to the growth of a massive illegal industry dominated by criminal gangs.)
