What Beer Did You Drink in High School?

[Steve H]

I fought the Dog once. And lost miserably. My fav's back then were "borrowed" from my parents bar. Usually UC talls or OV splits.

Graduated 1969. Hudepohl! Brewed in Cincinnati along with Burger and Schoenling. Weideman was thought to be from Cincy but was actually brewed across the river in KY. Today I drink PBR.

Sad to say but I started drinking in grade school, thanks to my cousin. not nearly as much as i did in high school But i guess ya got to start somewhere . Good thing I didn't have helicopter parents I probably should have though.

Yep fought the dog lots, just can't understand why I could never beat him

 

[chopsaw]

Me too Jim . Used to get to take a few swigs on camping trips . I guess they didn't expect me to like it . Lol .

Had the cans labeled water before too

Yes sir. They actually had an entire line of generic stuff at the Safeway around the corner from where I lived. Moved out of the house when I was 15, made a little $$ dabbling in the sale of stuff that I was lucky to not get caught doing, and didn't have anything in the way of cash being that I was determined to finish school. Used those products a LOT and it was kinda fun at times. You never knew what you were gonna get. Was a crap shoot with each purchase. Water, mac & cheese, bread, bacon, coffee, and the list goes on. Haven't seen it in years though but sure was a staple back in the day.

Narragansett (local brand) or Pabst.

 

[Gonna Smoke]

First alcoholic beverage I ever tasted was Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull, but I'd rather not think about that. What I/we drank regularly was Old Milwaukee out of my best friend's dad's garage refrigerator and then PBR that his older brother would buy us...

 

[jaybaks]

Blatz Cream Ale, Special Export, Old Style

 

[bbqbrett]

Whatever we could get out hands on

This sums it up.

 

[Millberry]

I remember one store display for this that said, "BEER. Accept no substitute."

That said, for my friends and I, it was usually a Rainier borrowed from someone's dad.

 

[daspyknows]

mostly Genesee and miller. if i had some extra money it was stroh's or coors and a bottle of stupid. ( mad dog 20/20)

Same and adding Michelob. After seeing where Genesee Cream Ale water came from I never drank it again. Don't drink any of that anymore.

 

[Bumppo]

My best friend's stepmom drank Coors light, so I guess we did too.

Nowadays, its craft lagers and pilsners in the summer and barrel aged stouts in the winter. But Budweiser is a year round staple if its going to turn into an all day affair.

 

[sandyut]

interesting and memory jolting. In CO we could still get 3.2% at 18 years old. OR the liquor store where the guy never checked ID's. Dude was a sports fanatic - I would just walk in and ask "whos winning" or "hows he game" and that was about all it took. Granted I had a full beard in HS.

for the 3.2; Coors light, Michelob, kittle kings, Stroh's, moose head. ok, almost anything and everything...
