Okay, what your first taste of alcohol.
mine was that my mum let me have a sip of Campaign on Election day and a sip of her Margarita on my uncles b-day. oh my uncle's margaritas had two bottles of tequila in it  :teddyr: 
yeah no.

My dad used to let me have sips when I was a kid and honestly I thought it was one of the grossest things ever.  Perhaps thats why I didn't really do much drinking until I turned 21.

My dad made let me sip his beer when I was about nine, thought it was real gross too. Then my girlfriend gave me some cider followed by some rum neat, which got me totally wasted, the first time I had ever been drunk. I ended up on her lawn speaking in tongues and flipping off the neighbours.

Haven't looked back since  :wink:

I don't really remember, but I know I was very young.  I grew up in the days when you could give your kids a sip of beer (or spank them or yell at them) without going to prison.  I'm sure I had sips of beer when I was 6 or 7 years old.  And it was not unusual for a parent (especially in an Italian family like mine) to rub whiskey or wine on a baby's gums when they were teething.  This probably sounds pretty barbaric to some people, but it made me who I am today (a weirdo).

My parents didn't drink, but we had some cousins who were jazz musicians and a little bit of partiers (in retrospect they were pretty sober themselves, but compared to my parents they were wild). They had their own portable bar, which fascinated me. I remember watching my cousin make himself a Manhattan and he gave me a sip. I thought it tasted like poison.

Got the taste for beer at about 15. I hung out with an older crowd, and the drinking age in New York was 18, so I was exposed to pitchers of beer at a young age. I learned to like that undrinkable "beer" that comes out of kegs at college parties. Not to the point of drunkenness, but I'd have a couple of cups.

I can't drink that stuff anymore. I can't imagine how I ever could stand it.

Pretty much my story except for not liking alcohol at all when I got older. Not saying that I never got drunk but I could count the few times I did with one hand.

I can't stand the tase of alcohol, which is why I don't drink.

My cousin talked me into taking a swig from a keg after a family reunion when we were about 5-6. He liked it; I thought I was going to puke. I still can't stand the taste (or even the smell) of any alcoholic beverage. If there is even a hint of alcohol, it tastes horrible to me. Needless to say, I don't drink and never get invited to parties.  :bluesad:

Probably wine at Thanksgiving.  It was too long ago for me to really remember. 

First time I tried a tobacco product was when a friend's dad let me try a cigar, though.  I was 8.

My parents use to give us hot totties made form whiskey, honey, and lemon juice when we would get a cold as a kid.

My grandpa used to give me swigs of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer when I was a boy.

I'd gulp it from the can and then let out a huge belch.  That always made me laugh.
There were several times when I started to swig too much and my grandpa would say, "Hey hey!  That's enough!"  The he'd take the can from me.  I would've drank the entire thing if he'd have let me.
I liked the taste and loved the huge burps it gave me.   :smile:

I used to sip my parent's beer when I was a kid. I kinda liked the taste, and still do, although I don't really drink much anymore. I like the taste of beer and tequila, and a couple of Irish whiskeys, but not much else. Some wine is ok once in a while, but not most.

My first real drinking experience involved a large quantity of Seagrams 7 and resulted in me doing a very good impression of a lawn sprinkler all over my bedroom. I was 15 or so at the time.

First I recall is when my uncle let my sip some of his beer at age 8.  Hated it, tasted like soap.  Later, I found out this was because it was Pabst Blue Ribbon.

First alcohol I remember liking the taste of was Amaretto---it tasted like candy!  I would very occasionally sneak some from my parents liquor cabinet when I was 12-13.  Not very much, though, because I was terrified of getting caught.
