Legal Question in DUI Law in Maryland

Is possession of alcohol by a minor illegal?

I am a 19 yo female and was given a citation for possession of alcohol even though I was not drinking and none of the containers were open. I was walking with it on the street. It was a case of beer that I was transporting to a party. Did I break the law?
