The result of this is that all drinking Swedes just have a huge storage of alcohol at home though.
They also frequently drive all the way to Germany (through Denmark) to shop duty-free drinks in bulk.
Scandinavian countries have “pant” on bottles and cans, meaning you pay extra for the container, but get the money back when you return it empty.
Same in Denmark. It was 15 until recently. We also held the record for teenage drinking for a long time, and still hold “most average alcohol per session” or something.
Yet we are statistically one of the “happiest” countries in the world. And take the most antidepressants!
