Yeah, I don't understand all the mentions of EPCOT here when the obvious place study for what will likely happen at DL is DCA.Never been to epcot, so I can't speak to that. I have been to DL/DCA/DTD several times over and I've simply never seen it. Alcohol has been readily available at DCA & DTD, and it would be incorrect to assert that it ruins the family friendly experience.
As Emmybee noted, the drinking habits may be different on the West Coast.
But what I consider an even more important factor is that the vast majority of DL visitors are locals. If you can go home later or stop at your favorite bar and have the exact alcoholic beverage of your choice for a fraction of the price, why would you want to get sloshed on overpriced drinks at DL? Oh, and since you will be driving home rather than taking a Disney boat as you might at EPCOT, you're more likely to watch your intake. Plus, you aren't on vacation, so not only do you not have that "let's live it up" frame of mind, you also probably have to go to work in the morning.
AFAIK all the alcohol available at DCA for years and years hasn't been an issue, so I see no reason why it would be a problem at DL.
