No you can not be charged . I spend alot of time in KY and TN consuming cold frosty ones and have asked the local law enforcement about the dry law. Being a dry county simply means that you can not sell it ! Now with that being said if you do go to a wet county and buy .... lets say a truck load of beer then you run the risk of being arrested for illegal transportation because it is more then the normal person would drink and they assume you are taking it to a dry county for resale. I have a buddy down at Dalehollow who helps us out with boat repairs and when we go down he used to ask us to bring him beer. I normally would take him 10 or so cases at a time. Last year I called him and told him I was on my way and asked for his order and he advised me to only bring a couple of cases. Apparently he loaded up his car at our camp site with 10 cases of beer and got stopped on the way home for speeding and almost got nailed for having more then the normal person would buy to drink. I guess he had to do some fast talking , but it scared him really bad.
When we go down with a group we normally transport 25-30 cases and a crap load of bottles , But we normally have 15-20 people in our group and stay for a week. Back in our house boat days when we would go on our yearly adult only bash to 76 falls we would have 6 couples on our house boat and have pictures of 40 cases of Miller Light stacked on the front of the boat it was a good trip
