That might be the case in your country, but it is not true in the United
Kingdom, where with parental consent, alcohol can be enjoyed from the age of
5 years.

First off, replies go at the bottom.
Teenage begins on the 13th birthday, and ends on the 20th birthday.
You can drink in the non-bar area of a pub if you are aged 5 or older.
Someone else has to buy the drink for you, of course. To me, this would
seem to encompass all teenagers.
Furthermore, persons aged 16 and 17 can buy alcoholic drinks for comsuption
with a meal not served in the bar. 16, 17, 18, 19 is 4 years. 13, 14, 15
is 3 years. So the majority of teenagers *can* buy a drink in a bar,
provided it is for consumption with a meal. This also covers restaurants --
I remember enjoying some reasonable wine in my mid-teenage years whilst
dining out with friends and family.
People over the age of 14 *are* allowed in to a pub's bar area. Again, this
is the majority of teenagers.
The original assertation that "most teenagers are too young to drink" is
incorrect. All teenagers are permitted to drink alcohol, with most of them
permitted to buy a drink in a bar -- subject to a condition, of course.
