My favorite part.... one pint per month was allowed to be sold "for medicinal purposes." It was to be sold through pharmacies. One pharmacy, Walgreens, went from a couple of stores to 300 in a matter of months.

There was also a tremendous upsurge in religious observance, as that was another exemption.

Sigh.
