From what I understood it was 18, it differs from state to state.

18 is right in NY and many states, 21 to consume however 18 once supervised by a person over 21!

At age 18, however, a person may work as a bartender, serve alcohol in a restaurant, and work in a liquor store if supervised by someone over 21.
