Alcohol legal age in EUROPEAN countries?

I am just curious to know what is minimal/legal age to be able to drink and buy alcohol in other EUROPEAN countries. I could use google to find out, but I will not, because I want to hear from people not from webpages. :) People who really know for one/several countries, because they live/went there regularly should be able to answer it correctly. Yep. Countries such as Spain, Netherlands, UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria...EU in other words! :)

So far...
UK 18
Germany 18 , 16 (beer) -confirmed-
Bulgaria 14
South Africa (non European but oh well) 18

Re: Alcohol legal age in EUROPEAN countries?

in Germany it's 16 for beer and 18 for the hard stuff, but its not enforced very strictly and if you're with your parents you can drink whatever you want, so long as they allow you to.

norway is 18 for regular stuff like beer, and 20 for the stronger... but pretty much all rules have exceptions...

Re: Alcohol legal age in EUROPEAN countries?

you can drink in the UK from age 14, but only in a restaurant and only if you are having it with a meal

that said, the person serving the alcohol has the right to refuse to serve you without providing any reason, just as they can refuse to serve you in any shop
