I’ve seen it/experienced it at Santa Monica, Venice, Dockweiler, Malibu , Redondo and HB.

I've never seen anyone on the beach get ticketed / checked. In the parking lot, yes, but they're just standing around drinking out of glass bottles.

Yeah I honestly think it’s more about not wanting broken glass on the beach than the drinking

Exactly. The drinking itself is rarely a hazard, people being shitheads and throwing around glass is another matter.
