Inconvenience trumps flattery
What's really galling is being asked for ID by someone much younger than you. This happens a lot in restaurants in the US.

This is why I never buy booze from supermarkets.
When I worked in a pub, part of the training was to being able to recognise potentially underage drinkers (even though my job was in the kitchen.) They did this by showing you eight people and asking you to guess whether or not they were underage - naturally, you'd get most of them wrong because looks can be very deceptive, so you should always ask for ID just to be on the safe side. It wasn't because they took some photos and made up the people's ages from off the top of their heads, oh no.

So where do you buy booze?
When I worked in a pub my training was being taught to pull a pint, and how to manhandle Boring Derek out of the door at closing time.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 12 Oct 2010, 21:12, Reply)

From the off-license, usually.
This place was a chain pub, that part of the training was compulsory for everyone. I understand major retailers do something very similar.
( The Mock TurtIe ™ --- Thinks you are a cunt, on, Tue 12 Oct 2010, 21:16, Reply)

I find Supermarket prices
More in keeping with my inebriation budget.

And as my darling Sister points out on a regular basis, I've looked ten years older than I actually am since I was born, so it's a long time since anyone has troubled me for ID.
