You may drink beer in pubs with a meal at 16!
I've just read this. Is this true?

I think they have to be with an adult who has to buy it for them - they can’t buy it themselves.

It is true, in England
www.gov.uk
The law was, I believe, intended to allow a family to go to a restaurant and allow youngsters to begin experiencing civilised drinking in controlled conditions, or a father to take sons to his club during the vac.
The youngster must be accompanied by an adult, and cannot buy the drinks himself, which fits the pattern.
I have been a licensee (and subsequently a DPS) in England, but not in Scotland where the law is different.
Alcohol and young people
It's illegal to buy alcohol if you're under 18 and you can be stopped, fined or arrested by the police for drinking in public

It is true:
I think they can go in a pub with an adult at 14 but not drink alcohol.
"If you’re 16 or under, you may be able to go to a pub (or premises primarily used to sell alcohol) if you’re accompanied by an adult. However, this isn’t always the case. It can also depend on the specific conditions for that premises."

I've heard it said that the reason the Mediterranean countries don't get as many alcoholics is because they introduce the children early to alcohol.
