Regarding Norway: Having returned from Tromso I learned that weak beer (below 4.7%) cannot be purchased from any outlets (including shops and supermarkets) after 8pm on weekdays, after 6pm on Saturdays and not at all on Sundays - and wine, spirits and stronger beer have to be purchased from state-owned outlets that close at 6pm on weekdays, 3pm on Saturdays and which do not open on Sundays.
Do watch this amusing Magnus Magnusson video about Norway's first ever pub (which happened to be in Tromso and which I visited):
