I had a deal with my Dad. If I get him a beer, he’ll give me the first sip. I remember it being gross. 🤢
MGD (Miller genuine draft) when I was Six.
Dad puts water down and I’m always allowed to drink from it, he always had super chilled water with ice. It always tasted good.
He put this thing down, it was ice cold so I took my normal two gulps. He comes back from the bathroom and yells at my older brother asking if he took a drink of his beer. “No, I hate the taste of beer”
Looks down at me with a giant ass grin on my face.
Cheap French lager in one of those stubby bottles. Funny how I remember the taste favourably even though I don’t like lager these days.
Leftover warm Heineken at the bottom of a bottle. After a dinner party thrown by my parents. Snuck a little swig while the grownups were outside saying goodbye. I must have been 9 or 10-yo. Tasted like snakebite. Just awful.
Didn’t go near beer till midway through college.
Beer if you count the sip my dad gave me as a toddler.
Plum rice wine if you count my first real underage drinking experience.
My first legal drink was rumple minze.
Bad decisions all around.
A half pint of Smithwick’s in The Long Dock in Carrigaholt, Co. Clare, Ireland, in the late 90s. I was 14. It was glory in a glass.
Champagne in Reims when i was 12 Was good. But i dont drink alcohole in anything
Whatever the drunk RVers left for us in their coolers.
Vodka with orange juice I think
Sips of beer from my parents when I was a child.
I stole a Coors Lite from my folks fridge at 16. Tasted gross. Stole liquor from the pantry a few times after that. Never managed to get drunk off of it, since I couldnt steal enough without being concerned they would notice.
Budweiser in the middle of the night at a party on the shore of Lake Cumberland in Kentucky.
The party was great, but the “beer” was so thoroughly disgusting that I have not drunk it since and that was 35 years ago.
Life is too short to drink bad beer.
At seventeen, I drank several beers to see if I could get used to the awful taste. The answer turned out to be “no”. It put me off alcohol for life.
I have tried various a lot of different drinks, but I have never found anything alcoholic that I actually like. I am now in my 60’s and I’m perfectly happy with not drinking.
I’m in my middle 50’s. There are alcoholic drinks I do like, but Miller and Budweiser and not among them. The wife and I will have wine, typically a Malbac or Chianti, with dinner a few times a month, then I’ll use the rest of the bottle to cook with. My local liquor store has a great selection of beers that you can mix and match. I usually pick up a 6 pack, especially when Dopplebocks are in season. A local brewery here has a “Dark Dopplebock” that is really good. Those 6 will sit in my fridge over the next several months until I slowly get to them.
I was like 8 or 9 and my family was on a weekend trip up the St John’s River on our neighbor’s cabin cruiser, I got to try a sip of the neighbor’s strawberry daiquiri before she made a virgin one for me.
Seems like I’m the odd one actually enjoying my first taste of alcohol. Fortunately I never became a heavy drinker even if I did develop a wider taste in alcohol as an adult.
