I don't know if it is a ruling about the SCA not providing funding for alcohol for
cooking purposes or not but our group has never been able to use SCA funds for
alcohol.  Any alcohol in my feasts was purchased out of pocket.  This got a little
expensive when I had to purchase several pints of brandy for a Chicken Normandy
I was cooking for 500.  If there is some other ruling I would like to hear about
it.
