Drinking alcohol or buying it? Because in Britain it's 18 to buy it yourself but 5 to have it at home.

You ever tried cleaning a chimney while sober at 5 1/2 years of age?

It would help cover the sounds of muffled child screams from within the wals of the building, so yes.

Purchasing and drinking beer or wine is legal at the age of 16, for spirits of all sorts you need to be 18.
