It will depend on the situation...like how drunk is the person? Fo a civil action, the law normally uses an objective "reasonableness" standard, asking "would a reasonably prudent bartender have served this person, given the person's intoxicated state?" A court may determine that a bartender has a duty of care to his/her patrons and the general public: a duty to not serve someone who is too inebriated because they might injure themselves or another person. If a reasonably prudent bartender in the same situation would NOT have served the person because they were too drunk, the bartender that did serve them may end up paying for it if the drunk person they served subsequently hurts himself or another person.
ADDED: (in the US) As is usual with most things in the law - it depends. Most (all??) states have so-called "dram shop" laws which place the burden of selling or dispensing Alcoholic Beverages on the purveyer. So, yes, it IS unlawful to sell to someone who is believed to be intoxicated at the time of the sale.
The defense is, of course, that the seller did not believe that the purchaser was intoxicated at the time of the sale. And . . . that's why we have defense attornies and juries.
Yes, in many places it is illegal to sell alcohol to someone who is already drunk. This is to prevent further intoxication and potential harm to that individual or others. It is important for sellers to monitor customers' alcohol consumption and refuse service when necessary.
Alcohol was illegal in the 1920s in the United States due to the Prohibition movement, which aimed to reduce crime, corruption, and social issues associated with alcohol consumption. The 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibited the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcoholic beverages from 1920 to 1933.

It is not illegal to be drunk, but it can be illegal to drink in excess and then operate a vehicle or engage in other dangerous behaviors. Public intoxication may also be a punishable offense in some jurisdictions.
Prohibition was made law in the United States primarily to reduce crime, corruption, and social issues associated with alcohol consumption, such as domestic violence and public intoxication.

The number of beers it takes to become legally drunk can vary depending on factors such as weight, metabolism, and tolerance. In general, for most people, consuming 4-5 standard beers in 3 hours would likely result in a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) above the legal limit of 0.08%. It is always best to avoid driving if you have consumed any amount of alcohol.
The legal drinking age is 18. Selling alcohol to people already drunk is illegal. If an underage person is caught with alcohol, they get arrested IRL- it never happens

I don't think it's strictly "illegal" but most places won't do it if they're blatantly drunk.
