What is the legal drinking age in your nation? 16, though still not allowed to purchase it, until 20. The idea of it is to reduce the "taboo" effect, as well if there parents are okay with it, can purchase alcohol and let them drink under supervision.

Does your nation produce any particular alcohol(s) for which it is famous? Our Mead mostly make the best in the world, as well some world popular/renown beers, ales, and whiskey. From our largest Province Skogsfjord we have a famous Maple Mead, though it's a bit rare, and rather expensive.
Is alcohol production / import / export a major part of your nation's GDP? yeah would say it certainly gives a healthy amount to out GDP.
Are alcohol-related crimes or social issues a problem in your nation? not really, we have a pretty healthy relationship with alcohol, crimes of the nature have been cracked down rather hard in the past and mostly a non-issue now.
Is alcoholism a problem in your nation? its fairly average compaired to other nations, except in the Northern areas, especially in far north, as people tend to struggle with depression often in the winter months as it's dark for most of the day.

How long has alcohol been restricted in your nation?
Since the very beginning.

Is alcohol restricted for legal, cultural or religious reasons?
Cultural and religious, as well as for safety. We believe alcohol clogs the mind and causes desire for fleeting worldly pleasures. Alcohol also results in dangerous behaviour by those who become too intoxicated. It leads to fighting and people getting hurt. It can also lead to animal abuse in extreme cases.

Is public opinion on alcohol restriction positive or negative?
Positive.

Are all forms of alcohol illegal, or just particular ones?
All are.

What is the penalty for producing illicit alcohol, if any?
Any alcohol is confiscated, and the offender is sent to rehabilitation.

What is the penalty for possessing alcohol, if any?
It is taken and the offender is questioned on where they came to possess it.

What is the penalty for consuming alcohol / drunkenness, if any?
Long term rehabilitation and spiritual counseling.
