Laws vary from city to city and country to country. When there is no law in place, the contract between you and your landlord, called a lease, determines restrictions. A landlord can prohibit anything that does not violate law. For example, a landlord and prohibit smoking and pets but not visits from people of other races, as that would be discrimination under the United States Constitution. Therefore, your written lease must specifically state alcohol is prohibited from the premises. If your lease is verbal, the landlord can simply tell you alcohol is prohibited. You must then accept this restriction or move, as to not accept it would nullify your contract.

The prohibition acts
It prohibited the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcohol.
Only if the consumption of alcohol is directly interfering with your enjoyment of the property. Are there late-night parties? Are beer bottles presenting a safety hazard? Talk with the landlord, and if that is to no avail, see a real estate attorney (look for one who gives "free consultations"--see the phone book).
It is alcohol sold for consumption away from the premises from which it was bought.
Yes Temperance reformers wanted to prohibit the manufacture and sale of alcohol beverages. This began before the Civil War insisting that no one was permitted to consume alcohol and was force by law.
The Mormons, the Seventh Day Adventists, and I believe the Methodists do.
There are a variety of Baptist sects. Most frown on alcohol, but not all prohibit it.
In United Kingdom specifically in England and Wales, alcohol premises must be licensed by a local authority to sell alcohol beverages. The one who is responsible for the premises(owners or managers or employees) must hold a personal license. To get this type of license, you must take the National Certificate for Personal Licence Holders or NCPLH course online or in an approved and accredited licensing school.
