A question of etiquette

I was just wondering about the following after our little boy burped to the delight of his parents:

At what age does it become socially unacceptable to burp in public?

Corrolarry to this question is why?

After all we need to eliminate the air trapped in our stomach and when this air is released it does create sound. What’s so disgusting about it? It’s a natural phenomenon.
