Yes, they serve sacramental wine in morning services, but they can't buy it.  As a matter of fact, most of the rural churches have a "wine lady" who makes the sacramental wine from a recipe handed down through the generations.  They have to have a special dispensation to make it for other than personal consumption, though.

It does make it more difficult though to have a couple of drinks after
voting to recover from the stress of having to repeatedly vote for the
lesser of two evils.

Hey ... are churches in South Carolina allowed to serve sacramental
wine before noon on Sundays? Do they need a permit?
