European ports and ETOH

What is permitted when bringing alcohol on board in Uk and Norway? Are you allowed to pick up spirits, wine in port and bring it onboard?

The rules are no different. Only the enforcement, which is not guaranteed. Generally yes, you can.

I can't speak to Norway, but I was on a UK cruise last year and I do not recall there being any issue with bringing alcohol back on board. I know my husband had some scotch he had purchased in port and we took home and I am assuming he just carried it on board in his back pack because we didn't have to retrieve it at disembarkation.  We didn't even drink it on board, but took it home with us.

My husband loves that idea!
