In the US, drinking age is 21 in all 50 states. 19 year olds are not permitted to purchase or consume alcohol (except in certain limited exceptions, such as church wine). Their country of origin is irrelevant. When a person is in the US, he/she must abide by US laws, regardless of the laws in their home country.

∙ 11y agoThe legal drinking age varies. In most provinces it is 19, in a couple others it's 18. You can't drink under the legal age because it's against the law. Why? Because there has to be a cutoff and 18 or 19 seemed a reasonable age.

Can a 16 year old serve alcohol in a bar?
In most European countries, yes, legally you can. Sadly the US has not caught up with the rest of the world, and the drinking age is 21. So physically, yes 16 year old can drink. But not legally in the US. Actually, you can legally drink in the US depending on what state you live in. You can never drink in public places (e.g. restaurants, parks) but you can drink on private property. Some states require parental permission to drink but some do not. In California (where I live) you can drink at home without parent permission. Also you can never buy alcohol you must have someone 21 or older buy it for you. But I don't recommend drinking without your parents permission, it can lead to getting in a lot of trouble. Most people don't know that you can drink before your 21 so I would make sure that your parents are ok with it.
