What the designation says
The TABC publishes Crockett County’s county-level status as W: B-Off, W-Off, DS-Off, which is wet covering 3 of the eight categories the commission tracks. Local option elections are held under § 251.72 on individual categories, not on alcohol as a single question, which is why a county can approve beer to take home and refuse bar service in the same vote.
What wet means in Crockett County
Every category Crockett County has approved is approved for the whole county, so the answer does not change as you drive across it. State sale hours still apply, and an individual business can still be narrower than the county, a store choosing not to stock liquor, or a restaurant holding only a beer and wine permit.
A county answer is not an address answer
This page states Crockett County’s county-level rules. The status that governs a specific store or bar is the status of the precinct and city it sits in, which can be narrower than the county line suggests. For a given address, run the location check rather than reading it off a county map.

Same county-level designation as Crockett County, category for category.
