A swig from a bottle of cider cost a 47-year-old man his freedom.
Richard Davies of Woodland Road East, Colwyn Bay, had been spotted by police drinking in the street at Llandudno when banned from doing so by a criminal behaviour order.
It was the latest of many breaches, District Judge Gwyn Jones was told at Llandudno court.
Davies, who pleaded guilty to the breach, was sent to prison for 20 weeks.
“It’s a flagrant and persistent breach of the terms of the order,” the judge told him.
“Members of the public expect that orders are made with the purpose of ensuring that the streets of Llandudno are free of this aggressive drunkenness.”
