Booze is pretty popular even in Muslim countries, there are "devout" muslims who like a drink.I know at least three Muslims in the UK who drink, and I've been told some stories about moonshine being distilled in Pakistan, by muslims. I don't think it's endemic but it's certainly a thing.
The likes of Saudi Arabia there is no alcohol legally available (but there is illegally brewed stuff about), same as the like of Kuwait, Abu Dhabi (most people drive to the likes of Dubai or Bahrain (where its legally sold) stock up and drive home). What is strange though is sometimes the shop owners will refuse to sell alcohol to a Muslim so outside of the shops there are always Indian / Pakistani guys who take your order off you, go buy your stuff for a small fee :D.
Being drunk in public, or worse being seen drinking alcohol in public can land you in some serious shit (you can be jailed).
