Legal Question in DUI Law in California

Buying Alcohol at night

Some friends and I tried to buy beer at a 7-11. we are all over 21, but the store employee said that the state wont allow them to sell alcohol between the hours of 2am and 6am. I searched around for documentation of this law but couldn't find it. please confirm or point me in the right direction.

The law in California has been in place since the dawn of time. I can't point to an ordinance or precise law. You might start with the Health and Safety Code. Good luck.
