Yeah, what kind of price point are you going to have? If it's $30 or $40 per person, you are only going to attract serious drinkers, those who can down 15 beers & still walk & then tank up on whiskey. Moderate drinkers who only want one cocktail or glass of wine, are not going to pay that much for one drink. Your idea is a non starter. The liability insurance would likely also cost a huge amount, assuming it could even be procured.
Even if they didn't drive, took an Uber home and fell on their walkway, hitting their head, someone's gonna sue.
I have to say, when we used to snowbird in Ft. Walton Beach FL, there was a bar called Cash's that had something similar. If it wasn't "pay one price and drink all night", it was "drink prices go up on the hour, so drink a lot early". Either way it didn't last. They still had happy hours with drink specials down there, at a time when MA bars couldn't do that, only offer food specials. This was back in the 1980's I am speaking of.
Aren't there places in the world though like ( at the risk of coming off completely stereotypical ) Russia where heavy drinkers who'd think nothing of spending an evening at such a place are a dime a dozen ?
Granted the knowledge of most of us regarding such a subject is probably quite limited , yet I must say that I'm sort of surprised at never having read an article about some such bar existing in ( say ) a Siberian mining town .
There are restaurants that do "bottomless mimosas" for brunch, but mimosas aren't typically drinks that people are slamming large quantities of, and it's also a drink that they can prepare relatively cheaply and weak without much push back from the customer.

Haha yeah I imagine that serving drinks of that sort would work out quite well , especially if one was to host a ( say ) " Drink all the Margaritas you want " event in a Key West bar on Jimmy Buffett day .

Quite well for WHOM!? The lame-azz drunks? Sure. The owner losing $$ serving these dolts? Nope. The neighborhood? Nope. Etc.
Sounds like you just want to justify the worthiness of drunken hillbilly-ism. Better that these types, if they have to, drink at home and limit the damage of the externalities,

The only place I have seen botomless Mimosas offered, also demand that you buy food. Normally Brunch, so the food helps keep the alcohol affects down or slower.

A bar with unlimited drinks for a set price would make no money in a town with a lot of heavy drinkers. That’s the last place they would open it. It would be like opening an old country buffet in a town full of sumo wrestlers. If everyone eats 10 times the amount of food a normal person would eat, there goes your profit. In a place like that, you would make a better profit charging per meal, and per drink.
