Brief Explanations

The 18th Amendment established prohibition in the United States. It was repealed by the 21st Amendment mainly because it was highly unpopular among a majority of Americans as it restricted personal freedoms regarding alcohol - consumption, and also it was extremely difficult to enforce due to widespread illegal production, distribution, and sale of alcohol (bootlegging). The Supreme - Court did not rule it unconstitutional, states were not misled about its contents, and it did not interfere with executive orders in a way that led to its repeal.

It was unpopular with a majority of Americans and also difficult to enforce.
