Beer is good. And stuff.

Probably 6 or 7 , family boil, helping ourselves to the fogs beers that were not attended too. No special event, happened every weekend.

No, hot shaken up flat beer on the side of the road in the summer. Was actually quite a while before I had another

A friend and I acquired this from his dad's ice chest in the back of his pickup.
No.......it was Pearl beer which did not make me an instant brew fan.

Who gave it to you? Stole my stepfather's. Molson Golden Ale
Was it a special day? Ran out of hard liquor. Was stealing booze for a couple years before starting on beer.
I'm Italian so I grew up with wine on special occasions & holidays… like Fridays.

I'm pretty sure my first drink was Champagne on New Years Eve (probably around 6 or 7 years old) at my grandparent's home.

Pretty young, probably 2-3.

My dad and his brother.

Not a special day.

It was at least 40 years ago and I can't remember what I did 5 minutes ago. That being said I do recall hitting my grandparent's cherry bounce when I was barely able to see the countertop.

Like most FOGs I can't exactly remember WHEN but I know I was somewhere around 9-10-11 years old and took a sip of my Dad's Miller Highlife. First whole beer was probably around 15 and most likely Primo (...yuck!...).

Probably six years old and remember my dad letting me take a sip of his Miller Lite in the can. Funny thing is the old can style is the flavor of the month now with Miller Lite.

Nothing special.

Can't remember my first beer but my grand mom love to offer me beer was I was just a little guy. Not sure if my parents ever let it slide but if so it would have been my 1st. She only drank Miller high life so that would have been the beer. Every day was a special day when grand mom was drinking beer and that was every day.

During the early 1960's, we used to sit on the front steps, (stoops, for you New Yawkahs), and listen to the Phillies on a transistor radio.
My next door neighbor's father would always have a Quart of Ballentine and a pack of Pall Mall Reds with him.
When he went in to pee, we would all sneak a sip of beer and steal a Pall Mall for later.
This is probably why I never became a big beer drinker or cigarette smoker ! [sarcasm]

How old were you?

Toddler

Who gave it to you?

My uncles

Was it a special day?

My birthday party, I don't know which one. I found it on an old home movie. I was going from uncle to uncle and they were giving me sips of their beer and laughing. Bet they were surprised that I didn't have to ride the short bus.

Family tradition to go get yer ole' man a beer, they always let you have a sip....

So I'm guessing as soon as I could fetch a beer.

Would have been either Coors, or Coors light. Pronounced: Curs
