You are serving a group of foreign tourists. Their passports say they are only 18 and 19 years old, but you know that the drinking age where they are from is 18 rather than 21. To comply with the law, what do you do?
  1. Serve them since it is legal in their country. After all, that is where their identification is from.
  2. Get permission from the manager to serve them.
  3. Only serve them beer and wine - no hard liquor.
  4. Refuse to serve them any alcohol at all and explain that the domestic drinking age is 21.
Explanation
Answer: D - To comply with U.S. law, you need to refuse alcohol service to anyone who is not 21 or older.

There may be some complaints from foreign visitors who are allowed to drink at younger ages in their respective countries, but serving anyone (citizen or not) less than 21 years of age in the U.S. is illegal and carries consequences. When someone is visiting a foreign country, he or she is required to follow the laws of that nation even if they contradict those of their own country.
