No, I wouldn't. You chose to go without your ID, so you got no drink. I'm amused that you are mad at this woman for doing her job. For all you know, she has to ask every X person for their ID and your number was up. Bring your ID next time.

No, that's not what was happening. Lol.
And no I would not be "ticked off". The potential liabilities and/or consequences for the restaurant are not worth it to them. It's not personal. You need to be prepared to show a ( valid/not expired) ID for any alcohol purchase.
Please cite a source that state, commonwealth, and/local bureaucrats are doing sting operations on bars using age 21+ decoys with expired licenses or old timers who left their ID at home. This simply does not happen. They use 20 year olds and teenagers with valid teenager IDs.
Lol. I'll pass on your invitation to "cite a source" as if I'm on the clock and you're my boss. Thanks though.!

Exactly.. You are a Karen OP.
+1 I wouldn't get mad b.c I'm not a Karen despite being a middle aged white woman. Don't get mad at people for doing their job. She could get fired for serving without seeing ID.

Sometimes this happens when I'm out with DH and he just orders and I share.
My guess is that OP left out that she complained and insisted that she should be able to order a drink, so the waitress told the bartender not to serve her because it was clear that the OP was going to try again after being told no.

We’ve been in the same restaurant and not been carded. Even the elderly couple next to us quipped they weren’t carded.
Like PP said, it's the law. What a self-centered dimwit. They can lose license. Literally!

If we get pulled over and get a ticket, we pay it without complaining to the officer. See how that works?
No, no you all don't. Come on. Are you going to pretend you all thank him for reminding you of the law also and teaching you a lesson?
I do thank the officer (note that not all law enforcement officers are “him”), unless they are confrontational and rude. But if I was speeding, I usually know it, and I don’t fight them on it, because I’m not stupid.
Do you also offer up your ID at the bar if the bartender forgot to check it? To make sure it's all on the up and up?
I provide ID at bars and restaurants when asked for it. What with that being the law and all. How entitled and bratty would it be to act like I am somehow above laws and policies? If you don’t like the restaurant or bar’s policy, you are free to ease on down, ease on down the road. You will not be missed.
But it wasn't the bar's policy in this case. They didn't check all IDs.
Here's one more thing going on: we can pick and choose who we card based on their age. Once we ask and you don't have on you, we cannot serve you. She could have served you if she hadn't asked.
That's also a policy, not a law. It is not illegal to serve soemone who is actually over 21. But you might get fired for violating your bar's policy.

That is not true. There are no such thing as stings with 40-something people, who ordered $100 in takeout no less. Stings are teenagers.
Who said anything about "stings"?

Would you say this about a male bartender?
