    First real party in High School, my buddy and I discovered a keg in his basement from his sister's party the night before. Fairly warm Bud Light and I thought it tasted so nasty but we drank it anyways. I ended up drinking shitty Bacardi and what not for the few years after that in college. Thanks to a few awesome BAs I rediscovered beer in my last 1.5 years of college and ended up drinking Sam Adams Black Lager a lot. From there it just was an avalanche of awesome beer.

    My first had to be when I was a lil boy at Ft Stewart and there was a small party goin on at a the house and someone left a half-full Bud Light on a table. Now, at this point I already knew that somehow beer was a "cool" thing to drink, so I went and took it for myself. Needless to say, my dad was not too happy. Course that was mostly because the beer was already claimed by someone, not so much that I was drinking at like five-years-old. Ultimately, I ended up being scolded a bit for taking a beer and then pretty much going scot free afterwards. Pretty sure I might have had a few warm beers before that though, what with my dad only being 19 when I was born so... :stuck_out_tongue:

    Molson Canadian, and only because of the "My name is Joe and I am Canadian" commercial.

    Wow, PBR? That's pretty good for a first beer. I never heard of it til 9th grade.

    Believe it or not, I was 18 y.o. I was raised very religiously. It was a sin to drink alcohol at all. I was in college at a dive bar called "The Collegiate". A buddy of mine kept coaxing me to "Just Try It!" It was either a bud light or miller lite. Can't remember which one. It was horrible!! I then started drinking wine coolers and vodka and orange juice. I finally started drinking beer after a few months due to financial reasons.

    Had some Miller Lite when I was about 9. My family was moving and one of the guys that was helping us work, who was a co-worker of my father, probably 18 year old kid was drinking it. I asked him to let me have some and he said sure. I remember liking it

    Everyone had ice beers in the early 90s.
    I believe it was a Labatt Ice (coulda been Molson) at 13. I pretended to like it...

    Not sure what the first beer I ever finished was, but the first one I ever tasted was almost certainly a Budweiser sometime in my teens.

    I was 14 years old watching a Pats vs Bills game with my dad, and he gave me a Bud. I took a few sips and gave it back to him. I drank nothing but hard liquor until my junior year in college until I found out good beer actually existed.

    Jupiler, when I got off a plane in Belgium and met my host family for the first time. I was 15, and it started a whole journey for me. Wish I knew then what I know now.

    Want to say I was 11 or 12, had a swig of I believe Miller Lite....thought it was awful, and that tarnished my view of beer for a while, luckily I hung out with Ukrainians in High School so we stuck to Vodka.

    I cannot remember exactly what beer or what age I was, but I'm almost positive it was either a Molson, Labbatt, or Genesee product

    I was my father's personal bartender ever since I was able to open the refrigerator/liquor cabinet...a few sips here and there. My first full beer must have been a Bud or a Shaefer with my cousins sometime around middle school.

    First time I tasted beer I was 6 years old, my dad was drinking Miller High Life & he gave me a sip, I remember thinking 'yuck'. My first whole beer, I was still in high school , probably some Genny Light or Labatt Blue.

    You probably stopped at one. It only worked if you were "having more than one"!
