What was your first craft beer?

That I remember? It was Kuhnhenn's Java Creme Stout or whatever that beer's called... not sure if it was imperial or not, but yeah.

I didn't realize it until a couple years after the fact. I probably maybe sipped some others before that, but I'm not sure.

 

Traded an old ass pool table for a keg of beer long time ago. Turns out to be a keg of Rouge Dead Guy....never looked back

 

Bell's Oberon (cringe)

 

Benediktiner hefeweizen, delicious.

 

Dock Street Amber 1985-ish

 

Either Sam Adams or Fat Tire. Don't remember which I had first.

 

My Dad's crazy friend's home brewed IPA...then it would be Anchor Steam...I thought it seemed badass as a kid...sailor's grog...

 

I was drinking with my brother. I was having Corona, he was having Arrogant Bastard. He offered me some, and I thought "sure, why not!" The rest of my Corona tasted like seltzer water after that.

 

blue moon and fat tire!

wouldn't call either exactly "craft" though

 

Yuengling, and then Samuel Adams Boston Lager.

 

If I recall correctly, it was Summit EPA. Still like to revisit that beer a couple times a year. Downright tasty.

 

I believe my first craft beer was either Bell's Oberon or Arcadia's IPA. It seems so long ago..

 

New Glarus Spotted Cow. Here in WI, I don't think many even consider it craft beer since most who drink Miller also drink Spotted Cow. It's just the way of life and what many drink. My roommates and I were getting it in kegs back in college...oh those were the days!

 

Had to be Bell's Oberon. Hated it when I first had it. Now it is one of my favorite summer beers.

 

I believe the first one I had was an IPA made by pyramid, it wasn't the greatest now that I think about it, but it did get me to think "so beer DOESN'T have to taste like piss"

 

Most likely something from Long Trail or Otter Creek since I came of age in the 90s and lived pretty close to both.

 

Can't remember exactly which Sam Adams, but my junior year at Iowa State I know I tried to taste every single offering from them. First beers outside the lites.

 

Anchor Steam? I guess?

 

Dogfish 60 minute

 

Chimay Grand Reserve. Still remember it vividly even though it was 20 years ago.
