there was a time when it was 18 all over the US...then kids seemed to get even stupider and the age was made 21. the laws says 21 for a good reason; i find it bothersome that people get so out of control with their drinking, especially minors. polyarny and i really need to get our licenses...and for that matter, open season established....on people
You can drink beer/lager/cider with a meal when you're 16 in the UK. And the overall drinking age here in the UK is 18 too -Mike
