This paper evaluates the randomized Good Drinks program in four localities of Bogotá, Colombia. The intervention encourages bartenders to adopt standardized practices that promote responsible behavior in terms of alcohol consumption with the goal of reducing alcohol-related violence and was implemented in cooperation with Colombia's largest brewery and the city's Secretariat of Security, Coexistence, and Justice. Tracing out the relationship between alcohol consumption and violence is useful because alcohol-related incidents often lead to more serious crimes. Our experimental design allows estimating direct and spillover effects on reported incidents within and around bars. Results show that bartenders in treatment locations sell more water and food, thus contributing to more responsible behavior by patrons. However, we find no direct or spillover effects of these changes in consumption on brawls five months after the program, but some improvement on other alcohol-related incidents. The experience of the Good Drinks program provides a better understanding of three aspects related to alcohol regulation and policy: (i) the role bartenders can play to curb excessive alcohol consumption and promote good behavior among customers, (ii) a practical experience of using less restrictive interventions for alcohol regulation, and (iii) the value of public-private partnerships.

与调酒师一起减少与酒精有关的暴力行为：行为现场实验

本文评估了哥伦比亚波哥大四个地区的随机 Good Drinks 计划。该干预措施鼓励调酒师采用标准化做法，在饮酒方面促进负责任的行为，以减少与酒精有关的暴力行为，并与哥伦比亚最大的啤酒厂和该市安全、共存和司法秘书处合作实施。找出饮酒与暴力之间的关系很有用，因为与酒精有关的事件通常会导致更严重的犯罪。我们的实验设计允许估计对酒吧内和酒吧周围报告的事件的直接和溢出效应。结果表明，治疗地点的调酒师销售更多的水和食物，从而有助于顾客采取更负责任的行为。然而，我们发现这些消费变化对计划五个月后的争吵没有直接或溢出影响，但对其他与酒精有关的事件有所改善。Good Drinks 计划的经验提供了对与酒精法规和政策相关的三个方面的更好理解：(i) 调酒师在遏制过度饮酒和促进顾客良好行为方面可以发挥的作用，(ii) 少饮酒的实践经验酒精监管的限制性干预措施，以及 (iii) 公私合作伙伴关系的价值。
