Do you remember what the first kind of alcohol you drank was?

Sip of beer, mostly foam, almost certainly a yuengling or Budweiser.
Also would occasionally have a small glass of wine or champagne for holiday dinners and such.
Liquor was a shot of some kind of fruity vodka, chased with some Gatorade. I was about 18 or 19, didn't really drink but my girlfriend did, and she wanted to have a drink with me so I obliged. Only time I drank with her.
Couple years later I was still living at home, I was about 19 or 20, parents were out of town and I was looking to make dinner. Found a recipe that sounded good that called for some beer, texted my parents I was gonna use a beer for cooking and got the ok. Used about half the beer, drank the other half. I believe it was a yuengling Oktoberfest.
First proper time drinking was about 2 weeks before I turned 21. I stayed on with my old scout troop as a leader, and we were going to be away on a week long canoe trip over my birthday. I was at a friend's shore house hanging out for a few days, and since a couple of us were 21, we grabbed a case of beer, I believe corona and a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black. We didn't go hard, we sat on the deck, smoked some cigars, had some scotch and a couple beers, but mostly we just hung out, went to the beach, and played D&D.
After I got back from my trip, for my first legal drink I went out with some coworkers after work. Had a few Yuenglings and a shot of Jack. Had a nice buzz going so I walked home. Had the hiccups most of the way.

First time getting lightly drunk was after eating all the strawberries from the punch bowl for the grown ups.
A few years later I drank beer until I felt drunk for the first time.

Communion wine on an occasion that the grape juice wasn't available.
I think it may have been part of what put me off of both alcohol and religion.

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.

A sip of red wine the adults said was the blood of a man who lived about 2,000 years ago.
First sip aside from magic ceremonies, a cold beer alongside a ham sandwich while working outside. Probably an american lager like Coors or Bud Light.

Me and my bestie snuck a Red Dog beer out from her neighbors garage and we split it when we were 14. We thought we got drunk off that half can of beer each, I'll never forget that day we had so much fun laughing. 30 years later and now I brew my own. Cheers!

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.

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.

A couple sips of a beaujolais. It was super dry, and I did not care for it. Nowadays, I love dry reds.

Yes, it was the beer from next town's brewery (it doesn't exist anymore)

The church my mom took me to as a kid usually had the option to take a very small (single sip) cup of grape juice instead of the same size small cup of wine during the communion part of the service.
But sometimes on rare occasions I went to a service outside the church proper (for example, one was to my uncle's house where my grandmother was dying of cancer) and usually for that kind of thing they only brought the wine, so I had to take some.I was mostly joking about it putting me off religion (plenty of other factors there). But it really did taste extremely nasty, and every time I've tried alcohol since then reminds me of it, so it might really be part of why I don't like alcohol.

I think it was a bottle of Miller draft, dad let me have a sip when I was 15 or so. It tasted so gross I stayed away from beer and alcohol until well into my 20's, I just couldn't understand why people drank that stuff.
Eventually realized not all beer tastes the same haha.
