Hahahaha, amusingly when I was under 21 I felt the same. By my late 20's I was like "fuck that. I don't wanna drink with any goddamn kids..."
Not sure how I feel about it now, but fuck it. Let's shake things up a bit...

I'm not sure your legal driving age with our legal drinking age would be a great combination either though o.O

Respectfully, I disagree with lowering the drinking age.
That said, I do agree that the "age of adulthood" should be uniform for everything, including buying booze & enlisting in the military.
Raise it all to 21. Marriage, enlisting, tobacco, alcohol, etc.

It's really weird and as a foraigner I'd bet that's a formal law almost no one really cares about. I mean, it's pretty normal to let children right above 10yo to sip some wine on Christmas here, while formally the drinking age is 18yo.
