Petition Reduce the minimum drinking age of low ABV alcoholic beverages to 16.

The minimum age for all alcoholic beverages is currently 18. This should be lowered to 16 for drinks that contain less than 10% alcohol by volume, in order to teach youths to drink responsibly. This is successful in Germany, where it is legal to purchase low alcohol containing beverages at 16.
