Q: Why did they not serve alcohol near the mine?
A: Because everyone there was a miner.
EDIT: Feel free to criticize, I came up with it myself.

A: A carrot
As for the miner joke I can see you got one of the several ways to take the response; 'Hand him a beer and tell him his mother bought it for him'.
The response could also be a slight by suggesting he was a motherless son of a *****. Or he could be confused knowing that his mother did not have the money to buy him a drink because he had already drunk his monthly wages by the first week of the month and had sold/pawned everything of value in the house etc. The joke works better if you have ever spent any time in the company of a bunch of miners.
All that said your joke (Why did they not serve alcohol near the mine?) was a good representation of a Bad (Clean) Joke but I don't think it will become a classic (neither would my alternate response). It definitely has the groan factor though.
Here is another old chestnut, for Christmas...
