    Zywiec. A polish beer my friend and I stole from one of our fathers when we were about 10 or 11. We split the bottle and wondered why people would drink that stuff.

    first beer i ever had was a glass of Guinness in the UK.....I actually didn't like it.
    the next memory is during freshman year of college, with a couple of my friends in their tiny dorm room, drinking 40's (Olde English).....as you can imagine, I didn't like that either!

    Bud Heavy, still love it ice cold out of the can with some steamers & lobster. Sometimes what makes a beer great is more then the beer itself. Just Sayin'.

    My first beer was Bud Light but my first real beer was Stone Arrogant Bastard! I still love it to this day.

    pretty sure 90% of people first had a drink at a party in either high school or college, so whatever is cheap. I went to WSU and it was Busch Light all day everyday. oh how I don't miss drinking that piss

    Schmidt's (of Philadelphia), a popular American light lager in Pennsylvania back in the day. Mid to late 60's, before I was of legal drinking age. A friend's father, who had been drinking for a while, bought it for us. We promptly took off to a secluded wooded area and downed a few. My thought was, "Man, why and how do people drink this stuff !".

    My dad always had High Life in the fridge, and I enjoyed it back in the 70's. But I had it a couple weeks ago, and it tasted like flavored water!

    Apart from family probably a Coors I stole from the fridge. In high school (in Colorado no less) I drank a lot of St. Ides and Old English. Finished high school in Missoula Montana and there if it wasn't Moose Drool it was a lot of PBR.

    Tried a bud light when I was about 6. Drank about 15 miller high life cans when I was 15, washed it down with some Taaka shots, it was a good time... probably.

    A few friends and I passed around a three stooges beer found in somebody's parents basement. It was New Year's Eve in eighth grade. I have no recollection of how it really tasted but i remember thinking it was good at the time (it was probably revolting). I remember looking for the beer when I was finally of age and never finding it.

    Bud light as a sophomore. Shotgunned behind my buddy's house. Tasted like ass. Joined the military and everyone was still drinking crappy beer. I thought I would never like beer.... Then Sierra Nevada Pale Ale happened and the rest is history.

    Split a budweiser when i was 13 with my bro and my best friend while his parents were out of town. Hated it. Still hate it. Didn't drink beer after that until i was 25. How things change.

    Around the time I was 14 I snuck a winter lager (Sam Adams) out of a family party at my house and hid it in my desk. Despite my best efforts to like it and power through, I didn't really like it. I haven't tried it since then, but I'll get around to trying it again one of these days.

    Not according to the brewery (via it's Moosehead Beer Academy website):
    Also, on Facebook page, a reply from the official brewery account, that specifically mentions that beer:

    First sips were from the bottom of Grandpa's Molson OV when I was diapers.

    First "beer" was Coors Banquet a friend had taken from his dad's beer fridge. I think it was still a novelty in Michigan at that point. It was summer vacation around 7th or 8th grade. We both chugged the can and went about riding our bikes. Still memorable for being pretty unmemorable at the time.
