Thread: blue laws

Germany is kind of an alcohol paradise. You get that stuff everywhere. Anytime.

And the age requirements haven't been enforced that long. When I was still 14 I could
go into a store and buy a bottle of wodka. When I turned 16 they started to check id's
for the age limit of 16 so I was good and when I turned 18 they started to get a lot more
strict with minors, but since 18 is the legal age it didn't affect me. So I was kinda lucky
all the way through.

I spent 1 year in the USA at the age of 16/17, that was quite a different experience.
You are treated so much as a child compared to germany (legal drinking age 16), I
had a curfew and in general could do a lot less things than I was used to.
