What should you do if you suspect a guest is nearing intoxication?

Stop serving any drinks immediately
Increase their drink strength gradually
Inquire about their plans after leaving
Verify their identification again

The correct answer is: Stop serving any drinks immediately

If you suspect a guest is nearing intoxication, stopping the service of any drinks immediately is the appropriate action to take. This approach helps ensure the safety of the guest, as well as that of other patrons. Serving additional alcohol to an already intoxicated individual can lead to serious risks, including potential accidents, health emergencies, or disturbances. By ceasing to serve alcohol, you demonstrate responsible alcohol service and a commitment to preventing overconsumption, which is crucial in a setting that serves alcohol. While other options may seem relevant, such as inquiring about their plans after leaving or verifying their identification, they do not directly address the immediate concern of the guest’s intoxication level. Monitoring and managing the serving of alcohol are critical responsibilities for staff to maintain a safe environment.
