Unless federal law changes the minimum age, he will win this lawsuit based on age discrimination.

Completely false.

Age is not a protect class in federal law. Do you think you can sue bars that don’t let 18-20 year olds in?

No he won’t. It’s over 40 that’s the issue. If I ran a gas station and didn’t want to sell cigarettes to anyone under 21, then that’s my business. They can go elsewhere and get the black lung.

As he should win. There is no worthwhile argument to back stance of these stores. At least with the cake, it was discrimination vs someone's right to not partake in something (think it was a 1st amendment sort of argument or something). This here is nothing vs discrimination.
