This is not the kind of image where I’d expect the comments to engage in nationalistic memes. I wanted to put that in the first comment , but I forgot. And yes, it took me 26 minutes to write this.

Apparently agelimits suddenly exist in Growing Up Is A Hard Thing To Do.  
With the CMC having it get rubbed in that they are too underage to go on their own.  
Even though they literally went through shenanigans without needing someone older to watch them or something.

I remember getting drunk for the first time at 14. At my parent’s World of Warcraft guild meeting. It was an embarassing but great time. I highly encourage parental supervision for a kid’s first hammering. To let them know what’s normal and stuff, keep them from panicking over fun things like loss of balance. Really did me wonders to discover this ‘potion of fortify charisma’.
 
Good question though, the ponyworld let’s the CMC get away with a heck of a lot for their age. And young adults like the mane 6 can do anything at all. Age limits seem to be pretty dang low, if they even exist at all.

Here’s an excerpt if you can’t be bothered to check Wikipedia like a responsible person:
 
“It is prohibited to sell, serve or supply fermented alcohol beverages (beer, wine, cider and sparkling wine) to anyone under 16 years of age. However this age limit drops down to 14 if a minor is accompanied by his parent or legal guardian. It is generally prohibited to serve, sell or supply any beverage containing spirits and foods containing spirits above negligible amounts, to anyone under the age of 18 years. Violation of the “Protection of Young Persons Act” can be fined up to €50,000.”
 
“France has no explicitly stated consumption age, but selling alcohol beverages to a minor (under 18) is prohibited and can be fined 7500 euros.”
 
Does that answer your question?

Since the drinking age is based off the Holy Symbol of Trinity and the age required to reach knighthood in medieval times (21), the drinking age of horses should also reflect both the minimum age required to become a royal guard and age of a middle-aged horse.
 
Therefore, the minimum age for Equestrian ponies to drink alcohol should be 12 years old
