Since when has that really stopped anyone much?
Many moons ago when I was 19 I visited an older friend I knew from IRC who lived in the Midwest. I ended up hanging out with a bunch of local 17-19 year olds there and while my friend's wife forbade him from buying us booze, the only thing limiting (but certainly not stopping) us getting alcohol was how much we could tolerate the company one rather annoying girl who was 21. I don't think I've ever drunk as much alcohol while traveling as on that trip.
The same way some of my friends here in Finland had no problem getting drunk when they were 15-16 even though the legal age is 18.
There's a big difference between "can't" and "many don't much want to".
