You can drink at any age in Belgium .
But you must be 16 to go to a pub without adult governance. You also must be 16 to buy alcohol in a shop. (but in most places it is no problem if you are not looking too young)
Of course you have also laws about child abuse (so a nip of a glass is no problem for a child but a glass is too much).
And there is a law about being drunk in public (and that is beside the law of drinking and driving).

The country is famous for its mussels and frites (French-fried potatoes), waffles, and endive. Fine chocolates are a passion and exquisite chocolatiers dot the marketplace of every city. More beer is consumed than wine by the populace. Many beers are crafted by small artisanal brewers whose family recipes and techniques go back generations. Beer laces the national dish, carbonnades flamandes, a Flemish beef stew.
Belgians love potatoes and are fond of game and meat. Charcuterie, a basket of bread, and beer often make a meal. Fish and seafood are important. Hearty soups play a big role, and the so called waterzooies are the most typical.
