Kids are not going to spend time looking at beer websites - I doubt many people do at all. Of course you need purchase restrictions, but I don't think brewers really sell much beer through their own websites.

And as for age labels it will need to be country specific - a beer will need to be stamped with 21 in USA and 16 in Germany. In reality, people know the drinking age in their country.

Overall a waste of time - a superficial exercise from the industry to say "look we're doing something".

Oh a label will work what a wonderful idea, will it be made of paper ?

Will it be produced using machinery and electricity ?

Im sure those who want to get smashed, plastered, wasted n drunk while being underage will read that label and stop their drinking.
