Unless they have changed something recently, it is 18, at least you can't buy alcohol legally until you are 18. Of course, most kids get to know the taste of alcohol much earlier than that. I don't think that drinking at home is considered a criminal offence for a kid, but if authorities find out that an adult gives or sells alcohol to minors or enourages them to drink, he may have serious problems.
