I think 1 pint per hour for a maximum of two pints (at least 1 hour apart) is a good policy. If you think about it, your typical pint is 16 oz, or 1.5 servings. This means that even if the individual chugs the second pint, the maximum amount of alcohol servings in their body is 2 (1.5+1.5 is 3, -1 for the average body converts 1 serving of alcohol each hour).
The average sized man (180lbs) will have a Maximum BAC around .051 (and this is only possible if they chug their second pint and leave to drive immediately).
For women 150lbs, your BAC would be a maximum of .074
I would extend this rule to wine as well- 1 glass per hour with a maximum of two glasses. A 180lbs Man having two glasses of wine in 1 hr (again, chugging at the very beginning of the hour) Would only have a BAC of .028
Personally I wouldn't serve liquor to OCers period.
If at any time your employees feel uncomfortable with an OCer, have them come to you. Ask the OCer to leave at any time if you wish.
I would argue that these would be good rules for your store. The amount of respect that you show OCers by doing this would arguably guarantee returning OC customers.
