Not everyone can drink legally in the UK - there's a minimum age limit as to when you can start buying alcohol. But this limit isn't clear cut.
If you're in a restaurant you can have a glass with a meal at the age of 14.
At 16 you can drink shandy1 in pubs.
At 18 you can start buying alcohol legally in pubs.

The good news is that in Scotland the pubs stay open an hour longer than in England.
There's only really one important rule. Actually it's more of a tradition. If you spill a rugby player's drink by mistake you have to raise your glass and say "your pint's a poof".

Drink as much as you can in as many pubs as you can. The beers have more alcohol than American beer, so please be careful if you're not used to this. Be sure to go over to Dublin, Ireland as well - you can really drink a lot with the locals over there. Enjoy and be careful!

One rule. Don't spill your drink. That's alcohol abuse.
