Drinking beer and wine should be for the 16 year olds, drink whiskey and vodka should be the domain of adults and thus 18. Have no idea where the americans got the age of 21 from, seems exessive to me.
I must agree that Europeans also get plastered but generally they get plastered at a younger age and hopefully by the time they're 21 they should be over it. Though many are not it must be said drunken behaviour is not a bad thing as long as you're a good drunk.
