What is drinking age in iceland?

The legal drinking age in Iceland is 20 years old. It is illegal for anyone younger than 20 years old to purchase or consume alcohol in public places. The sale of alcohol in bars, restaurants, and stores is highly regulated by the government, and alcoholic beverages with an alcohol content of more than 2.25% can only be sold in state-owned liquor stores called Vínbúðin. However, it is legal for those under 20 years old to consume alcohol in a private home, with parental consent. The penalties for breaking the drinking age law in Iceland can be severe, including fines and imprisonment.
