Amtrak is by law required to enforce some alcohol laws. A combination of state laws moderated by Federal interstate limitations and additional requirements. Generally in public areas (everything except a sleeper room) Amtrak has to only allow booze they have served, they cannot for example serve someone who is visibly drunk. A sleeper room is considered private space, ie you home, and pretty much everyone not allowed by the "renter" can stay out (of course the conducter can cancel the rental for cause, and back to public rules).
Do everyone a favor.
1. Follow the rules, private alcohol only in sleepers.
2. Dont allow youself to become drunk even in your sleeper, you become a safety hazard to youself, fellow passengers, crew, and any emergency responders who may have to come to you aid.
3. Dont even think of supplying or buying alcohol for a minor.
Also, for the original poster, enjoy beers on board to enjoy as beers. Consider not getting as schmidtfaced as your buddies, you might actually find you enjoy things more kinda sorta sober.
