You are probably referring to the 21st Amendment, which ended Prohibition. The 18th amendment to the Constitution (1919) made it illegal to manufacture, sell or distribute alcoholic beverages. It was supposed to reduce alcoholism and lower crime rates (many crimes were related to drunkenness), but it turned out to be a very unpopular law, as well as a law that was nearly impossible to enforce. By 1933, the 21st Amendment had repealed it.

That would be the amendment repealing prohibition. The 18th amendment established prohibition, and the 21st repealed it. However, to say that these amendments had no impact on the Constitution is not correct. The 18th amendment became part of the Constitution as truly as any other part, and the 21st did also. This had a major impact on the Constitution, and on the people as well.
