jstory, the age depends on the state. In NH it's 18 for bartending, as Hal mentioned, in CA it's 21.

That aside, bartending is not an easy job to break into. There's tons of money to be had and because of that most places will only promote from within. Think about this: on a busy Saturday night in a good bar you'll probably need to make drinks for the dining room/seating area and make drinks for bar customers. Not only that, if the place serves food, you have to wait on customers at the bar which means knowing the menu as well. Bartending is an awesome job to have as long as you know everything else that's going on in the place. Ask The_Original_King for more details, if you can get a job as a bartender, jump at it, but my guess is that they'll be hard to find.
