My buddy Stu took this picture at the Hofbrauhaus in Munich. I was there with him and we saw this with our own eyes. A boy that couldn't have been older than 3 or 4 was drinking a beer...his own beer...and so was his slightly older sister (maybe 5 years old).
In this country, that gets a call to DCFS. In Germany, it's totally legal.
My grandfather gave me my first beer when I was 11, which in retrospect seems a touch early too, but this is ridiculous.
