2) they have probable cause (knowing of or observing a violation of law)

How about a reasonable suspicion that someone underage was consuming alcohol and asking for ID?

Nope, that does not meet the standard. However, what often happens is that “reasonable suspicion” is used to bully an owner into allowing the police in. This is often combined with vague threats of retaliation or retribution should the cops be forced to go get a warrant. Once the owner caves in, and gives permission, they have obtained what they wanted.
