Had my first sip with my dad when I was 6. Czech Pilsner.


All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

Sips from my Dads Coors when I would bring him one as a kid. Still drink Coors. When I was 15, my older sister and some friends went on a camping trip and somehow I weaseled myself into it so got to go. Guys and Gals, all 17-18. Partied with them, next morning I woke up and cracked a beer for breakfast and they all thought I was nuts. That's the day I realized beer and I have a special relationship. wink

My first beer was a Coors when I was 12. Stole 2 of them from my dad.
Didn't take him long to figure out that I was stealing his beer. He switched to Hamm's at that point. Guess what, I still took his beer. Then he switched again to Coors Light, that ended me taking his beer.
Found a local old timer that would buy us beer if we have him 2 beers.
Started drinking Busch at that point. Stuck with Busch from age 13 to about age 35ish. I have been drinking Miller Lite since then.

At the least I will have 2 shower beers every night

Four years old. At the lake with my dad, mom, and brother.

We hadn't caught much all day, a few perch, maybe a couple small largemouth bass. I had a rubber worm on my line, and hooked and landed a 5 lb. walleye. Catch of the day.

As we were loading up to leave, I was sitting in the car, and my dad jokingly said I had "Earned myself a beer", cracked a Pabst and handed it to me. I was quietly sipping it in the dark. A few minutes later, as he got into the car with my mom, he said, "Maybe you need some help with that" and picked it up.

His next words were, "Geezus, this things almost empty!"

Mom was pissed. I slept through the entire car ride home.

Very young I had a few sips here and there and thought it was horrible. At 15 I had 5 or 6 at farm party and thought I was a god. The next night I decided to shotgun the beers instead of enjoying the night. Big mistake. I don't think I had another beer that summer, well at least for a few weeks.

Whenever Americans visited Australia, it never took more than a couple of different beers to hear the words, "Oh, that's a good beer".

When Aussies visited the US, it never happened. I love beer but I still never have anything American in my fridge. God awful fly spray.

Thank God for Bourbon, whiskey and Red wine.

I was drinking every day when I got home from work [where I designed tests for Boeing].
At age 30 I did a test where I drank 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 drinks a day for a week.
I wrote down how I felt every 1/2 hour.

Because people who have one drink a day have the longest life expectancy, I expected I would feel best with one drink per day.

I was wrong.

I felt best with 0 drinks.

A couple of drinks a day ... confounded by many, many other factors in an individual's life.

Our alley neighbors loved NASCAR and would have a garage full on race days, that when I sniped my first drink of either Hamms, Schlitz or Old Milwaukee. My dad seemed to osilate between those three, whichever was cheaper.

At age 19 in College. A pitcher of something yellow and bitter and nasty at the local C/W bar and pool hall.

I have never found a beer I can actually enjoy, except once. A Pizza place in Boise had Lowenbrau Dark on tap. My buddy and I killed a pitcher with a pizza that night after bucking hay bales all day.

That was good beer, but soon became unobtainium in USA.

I can almost swallow Amber Boch, but it is still a bit bitter.

Can't remember how old I was, but it would have been a Rolling Rock in the little pony bottle. Dad had an old fridge in the basement always well stocked with them.

I was a sophomore in college! ( drank whiskey drinks prior to this...) The Rifle Team at N.C. State was courting me and took me out for beers. Bud in a long neck bottle. I thought not was horrible...my opinion changed shortly thereafter!
