What and when was your first alcoholic drink?

Beerguzzler · 5 Jan 2008 at 18:49

Beer/wine at a young age but I hated it, im sure they done it to laugh at me. First time I had a bit too much was at around 12 or 13 at a neighbours party.

Something called 20/20. At 15. On a park. Classy.
If you know it, well, you know my pain. If you don't know it, you're very lucky.

Guinness.

My mum put it down next to her chair at a country show when I was barely standing.. next minute I was drinking it!

Not made a difference ... :eek:

My nan's Babycham when I was 12. I was caught & was in the doghouse for the rest of the day.

I got very very drunk when I was four by going around all the rellies and sipping their sherry one Xmas. Apparently they found me asleep under the dining table.

Whiskey when I was at a New Years gathering with relatives about 8 or 9 years old. Hated it and ended up not drinking until legal age. My first drunk experience was with a few friends and drinking cheap red wine after eating a kebab when I was 20-ish. That wasn't a pleasent experience and I still get slagged off for it to this day.

Erm, first? Probably some taste of wine or something my parents gave me when I was really young. I know I tried advocaat pretty young.

First time actually drinking because of the alcohol content? White Lightening I think, when I was about 14 or 15.

John Smiths Bitter many moons ago.

My parents used to let me and my sister have wine with Sunday lunch from when we were ~12 (can't really remember ... it's along time ago).

Amusingly it did come out a few years ago that my sister had been guzzling the cider at a church youth group she used to go to ... she came out with this information at a family get together out of the blue when she was ~26 ... she has not been allowed to forget this and has been grounded until she's 40

the best alcopop ever, if there can be such a thing....

Bells Irn Bru. 11 years ago now... think im right in saying 4 bottles did the trick

soleside · 5 Jan 2008 at 21:46

I remember being 4 years old and stealing a freshly opened can of McEwans my Grandfather had left beside the sofa, I chugged it down as fast as I could for fear of being caught, then promptly threw up everywhere.
