Alcohol prohibition in Washington state began on January 1, 1916, when the state enacted a law that prohibited the manufacture and sale of Alcoholic Beverages. This was part of a broader temperance movement in the United States leading up to national prohibition, which was established by the 18th Amendment in 1920. Washington's prohibition lasted until the repeal of the 18th Amendment in 1933, after which alcohol sales were legalized again.
