questdriven: You say you're in Georgia? for a start, I think that there's a difference between purchasing, public drinking and possession on the one hand, and private premises with friends and family, etc., but you'd have to check. I looked up Georgia: it used to be 21, then it was lowered to 18, then raised successively to 19, then 20, then 21 again! if it's in private you might still be able to, but sounds like for moment you're out of luck! (not that I believe in luck; just an expression.) Moderation in all things is the key. Blessings.
