First Beer You Ever Tried

Leinenkugels Summer Shandy, to think at that time I thought that was an amazing beer haha.

 

I used to sneak sips of my Dad's Schmidt whenever I would grab him one from the ice box. I started doing it about age 5. First "Craft" beer I tried, I believe, was Pete's Wicked Ale.

 

Bud Light

 

My first was an Old Style when I was 7. Thought it was the best thing ever... Lol. My first craft beer was 3 Floyd's Gumballhead and it blew my mind!!!

 

Coors. I'm sure I was a toddler the first time. I have very specific memories drinking small glasses of it at 5-years old. First time I drank a whole can was 2nd grade.

 

Tennent's Lager. Scotland. Sitting on my dad's knee.

 

Either Goebel or Little Kings. Can't remember that far back.

 

Had a sip of Busch when I was 13. Man it was awful.

 

old school pop-top coors LITE. I was 7, and it was an accidental spillage incident all up on my face. I thought it was the most horrendous shit. Not too far off my 27 year old opinion either.

 

My rarely around biological father gave me a sip of Budweiser when I was like, 7. I hated it, as most children would. Other than that, I was rarely exposed to alcohol, especially beer. It was mostly wine coolers and sips of screwdrivers during big drinking holidays.

Then when I went to my first party with alcohol in high school there was a keg of Yuengling. Fell in love with beer after that night.

 

I had Birra Moretti when I was 17 on vacation in Italy. Pretty damn refreshing on a hot summer day.

 

I think my first full beer was a bud lite. My first craft beer, however, was an Ipswich IPA that I was allowed to have at Easter when I was 14 or 15. I distinctly remember craving a beer the next day when I was doing my homework...

 

Coors Light. I think I was 12 or 13. Didn't know what to make of it, but I didn't like it.

 

Budweiser

 

Bud light

I took one sip, and stuck to pepsi for the rest of the night.

A few years later, I tried MGD and found it a little bit better, but still less than delicious.

Blue Moon and Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss came later, and those set the stage for better beer for me. Then I tried Summit Pale Ale, Guinness Extra Stout, and a few different offerings from Sam Adams and went from there.

 

Mine, too. My brother bought me a six-pack (and nothing else) for a day of fishing...when I was in 2nd grade! What a great big brother! One sip was all I needed to go thirsty the rest of the day. My first "real" beer was Bud when I was 12. It would be a few more years until I had more beer. If it wasn't for all my Irish blood, I probably would have never consumed another beer!

 

Heineken, one of the old British versions, not the stuff people here are familiar with.

 

John Smith's Extra Smooth and Bitter were the first two. Living in England, I had tasted others first but those were the first I drank fully.

 

Busch beer when I was 2. Grabbed it when my dad wasn't looking thinking it was for me. Of course I don't remember this but my mom sure does. Its funny because Busch was also the first beer I remember drinking in the 7th grade.

 

At a summer camp I attended but during the winter season. 15 or so y.o. Had one Colt 45 16 oz. tall boy and proceeded to tumble down a flight of twisting stairs. It was great to be 15 - I didn't get hurt or even have any soreness. Those were the days.
