In Germany we're allowed to drink beer at 16 (everything at 18) and afaik if you, aged 15 to 17, are working somewhere that sells alcohol there isn't a law that's forbidding you to handle it.

We all know nobody cares about that there. Teens get wasted as early as 13 and by 18 they already give up on drinking.

IIRC 16 is just the minimum age to be allowed to drink in public, or purchase alcohol (except spirits, that's 18). In private there's no limit.

Also 16 is to buy or drink unaccompanied, if accompanied by a legal guardian it's 14 (again excepting spirits).
