Well, I work as a bartender, and here in Finland it's strictly against the law to serve alcohol to, or even allow a "visibly intoxicated person" to enter the premises (a law which almost every bar breaks at some point, intentionally or no), and I think I've witnessed multiple times myself how a customer's level of intoxication reveals itself only after you have served a drink to them and they've payed for it. Could it be called a Schrödrinker's cat?
Not related to the Schrödinger question, but my advice for solving that problem would be to have some little robots trundling about with boxing gloves on. They can randomly harry each your walk-ins with a sudden flurry of blows. By seeing how these people handle the unexpected robotic assault, you should better be able to assess their level of inebriation.
Oh yeah, and maybe add some voice output to these automatons, so the machines can call the potential customers gay, and insult their fiscal levels (the go-to insults in any finnish bar).
