    Natty Ice really warm. I was probably 14. Some friends of mine acquired a case. It was stored with no ice in the middle of the summer outside in a hiding place. It was consumed the following day.

    My first beer was a Fat Tire. Unfortunately it was a forgotten beer in the fridge and was there for over a year. It was awful. I was way more ignorant and didn't think time would phase it. Well... it was disgusting and I'm surprised I was able to look past that and have several more Fat Tires since then.

    A better question might be this:

    Is there anyone here between the ages of 27-35 whose first beer wasn't a Bud, Miller, or Coors product?

    Mine was not. I was 13. It was a full bottle of Bud that our next door neighbor left sitting by his garage. I couldn't bear its intensity and was aghast that people could drink several of these at a sitting.

    Safe to assume most people had some variety of light beer

    When my buddy and I were about 11 we took a cpl of his dads Little Kings out to the garage and drank them. Safe to say that was the last little king I ever had haha.

    Outside of "sips" of my dad's Blatz, my first beer was a warm Strohs a buddy and I found in a ditch along a country road when we were about 13. My first beer at a party at age 15 was a Little Kings Cream Ale, or "Dog Sweats" as we used to call them way back then. My how things have changed...

    Other than sips now and again while a youngster, the first beer I drank - and bought myself with rather impressive fake ID - was O'Keefe Extra Old Stock. It was the beer of choice for my friends and me at 16 because of the higher ABV. Drinking it also made us feel superior to all the guys at school who were drinking Molson Dry because they couldn't handle the after taste of "real beer." A beer snob from the start I guess!!

    First sip--a Budweiser at about age four or five, which would have been about 1969 or '70. I asked for a sip to see why all the tall people were drinking it, and it cured me of my curiosity until age 15.

    First full beer that I remember was an Old Milwaukee from a 15 pack that my cousin bought me and my friends. We were 15 and didn't have a clue that my cuz had bought the cheapest beer and kept the change.
