The Pennsylvania Supreme Court affirmed the lower courts’ holding that an organization which hosted an event at which alcohol was provided, but wasn’t a liquor licensee, couldn’t be held liable for injuries caused by a guest who became intoxicated at the event.

According to the panel, the courts had correctly held that Dairy Farmers of America Inc.’s purchasing and providing of beer for an employee golf outing was insufficient to trigger civil liability exposure for the injuries an intoxicated guest caused.
