How old were you when you stopped getting carded (for alcohol)?!
For those in other countries I live in the U.S. where the legal drinking age is 21.
Answers: I'm 28 and still get carded pretty much every time. I went wine tasting with some family members over Christmas and the woman at one of the wineries asked THEM how old I was (like I can't speak or pull out my license?)...I suppose that's a compliment but still. Just curious when everyone else stopped getting carded.

I am 34 and still get carded
at 32 I got carded for smokes, I about died laughing. I told the lady I would be right back my ID was in the car. She told me forget it, if you are laughing that hard it has to be true.
I had been being served since I was 15 (I know, illegal but I always looked older) The first time I was carded was on my 21st birthday.
29 was the last time.
Funny, I was a bartender since age 21.
I got served in bars without getting carded at 16 and I was last carded at 31 by a bartender who appeared to have been sampling his stock a bit too liberally. At 20, where the legal age was (then) 18, a bartender refused to accept my ID, saying that there were too many stolen IDs floating around the area. At the time, I was working for the state near the bartender's home and he asked our crew to wake him the next morning so he could see what we were doing. My supervisor sent me to knock on the door to wake the bartender. You'd be surprised how quietly someone can knock when he doesn't want to disturb a sleeper.
Being carded at 28 is a compliment. Enjoy it while it lasts.
