خلفية ثقافية
Drinking is deeply tied to gastronomy. It is common to drink wine with meals, but public intoxication is generally frowned upon. The legal drinking age is 18, and while the culture is similar to France, there is a stronger influence from North American craft beer culture. In many Muslim-majority Francophone countries, drinking alcohol is less common in public and may be restricted to specific hotels or restaurants.
