That notice is not a legal restriction, nor a rule to stop stores from breaking up multi-packs. What it’s there for is to alert buyers and cashiers that the barcode printed on each unit contains the product code for the multi-pack. If stores want to sell individual units, they just have to re-label them, or at least not scan the barcode.
The store in which I used to work sells individual bottles of beer, or build-your-own 6-packs. The liquor department manager just puts a slash through the barcodes with a black marker, so they won’t scan on the registers.

I’ve never seen “Not for individual sale” on alcohol.

Fair enough.

If it is in a closed packb and no price is listed individually, then it is likely not for sale individually. You certainly should not be opening something to take one out.

You just haven’t looked hard enough.
