The FARs require that any alcohol consumed on board be served by a crewmember (so that the crew keeps control of the alcohol and can cut off someone who is intoxicated). Self-serve alcohol would violate that regulation.

So I wonder how the Emirates in-suite mini bar gets around those FARs? I wish I could provide the answer from personal experience.
