to 18 with some restrictions.The bill would allow people 18-20 to drink beer or wine as long as they don't get drunk and they're with someone over the age of 21. It says the intent is so younger people will start drinking alcohol while under adult supervision.

Those in law enforcement are against this bill, calling in irresponsible. Police cite more than 1/3 of all fatalities in New Hampshire are caused by drunk driving.

If the bill passes, it would take effect January of 2017.
