North, South, and Central America! 😉

You must be right since I originally included Canada in "America".

You are right. I misread America as "North America", but America means USA. In the USA, they have freedom of speech, more so than Canada, the government can't restrict advertising that much. Their industry is mostly self-regulating, for example: https://www.beerinstitute.org/policy-responsibility/responsibility/advertising-marketing-code/

No advertising to children is the most important restriction and several guidelines address this issue

I think alcohol advertising will eventually be banned but it'll take a long time. Governments are addicted to the revenues.
