The law is the same in Colorado, but the practice is different. Here
there is usually a last call announcement at 1:20-1:30 or so and no
drinks will be served after this point. Only if someone really takes
more than 30 minutes to finish a drink (more than a reasonable amount
of time, IMHO) do they actually have to take drinks. Here the clients
do not have to be out, but the alcohol does have to be off the tables
by 2am.
