When it comes to purchasing alcohol, the lowest drinking age is 16, the minimum age in many European countries including Belgium, Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Austria. Some nations such as Germany have a legal drinking age of 16 for beer and wine, but a higher minimum age of 18 for hard liquor or spirits. Other countries allow minors to drink at home under adult supervision, but not out in public: Great Britain, for example, allows children as young as five to drink at home, although they cannot purchase alcohol until they are 18.

Other countries have no minimum age at all. Nations with no legal drinking age limit include China, Armenia, Lithuania, Cambodia, the Ukraine, and Thailand. Some of these nations, such as Thailand, impose a limit of 18 on the ability to purchase alcohol legally. In actuality, most people under the minimum purchasing age in these countries are readily able to obtain alcohol.



Try telling the authorities your allowing a five year old to drink alcohol in the UK and feel the floating sensation as they whisk you off to court so fast your feet don't touch the ground!
