Ok to lift the gloom of Left vs Right, Beheadings and everyone getting on at each other t*ts
I thought I would start a thread on the one thing we all have in common
Beer & Alcohol
so how old was you when you had your 1st pint & where was it
ok 1st Pint was with the old man in the Turks Head in Hillingdon I was 14 and I think the old man needed a drinking partner as my Mum had left him, 4 pints later I was zig Zagging home , thinking this was the best feeling in the world & oblivious to the fact the old man & old girl were getting divorced

First pint in a pub would have been a Hotel in Port St Mary, Isle of Man aged 16. Think it was the Bayqueen, it was run by Asians and they had no idea on age restrictions it seemed as every customer was underage occasionally a girl would have a boyfriend over 18 but these people just looked wrong in there. Of course didn't last forever and one member of this board may divulge the details of his criminal record attained during the inevitable police crackdown but it served us nicely till we were nearly legal aget. Ah the memories of PC Pendlebury! |  | | |

Ha! The Turks Head PP. Mine was up the road at The Prince of Wales, three pints of London Pride and staggered down Vine Lane and back into Uxbridge. Got a right taste for it. Still drink it today. I guess I was 15 or so, no chance of getting a pint in the Red Lion, and Chris of the Prince of Wales knew my mates older brothers so just looked the other way and pulled you a pint. Magic times. First the lips, mouth, cheeks all numbing, legs going and falling over. A cheeky puff in the graveyard by the Cricket Pitch on the way home. Great days.  |  | | |

Horse and Groom in Streatham. I'm guessing late 1982 when just turned 16. Everyone went there from school when in the sixth form and they were relaxed about the under age stuff.
Almost certainly a pint of gassy, unmemorable lager... |  | | |

Me granny always had a bottle of this 'tonic wine' in her cupboard next to the orange squash. She hated drink and drinkers but would have a small glass if she needed a pick me up, yeah believed it at the time haha. Vile stuff but one of our Scotland group has to have a quarter bottle of it before a game, never drinks it otherwise. Peculiar | | | |

In 79 or 80 aged 15/16 in the Brig Tavern in Dunfermline. Probably a cider and black currant. Black and tans and snake bites also featured heavily in those early drinking days. |  |

I reckon I was 14 so it would have been either 1992 or 93. Canny pinpoint exactly but it was definitely either The Dog & Duck in North Wembley, The Spinning Wheel in Northfields or The Railway Hotel in Wealdstone. Probably the former. It will have been a pint of Fosters or some other such muck. Unsurprisingly none of the three pubs are still available for a pint of Fosters or anything else for that matter - barely any pub I spent any significant period of my youth in still does :-( |  | | |

North Star in Ealing Broadway when I had just turned 15.
Can't be sure but think it may have been Castlemaine XXXX
They had a purge on under age drinker's soon after and we then laughably became the regulars at The Old City Arms on Hammersmith bridge!!! |  |

Was also 15 and also chose light and bitter as my introduction to pub drinking. I'd never liked the taste of lager so instead of just drinking what everybody else was I decided to go for what I liked. Obviously that's all changed now and I drink lager and do what everybody else does. The first nights out were down the Hoppers in Crawley, great nights, 5 quid was all you needed for 4 drinks and a pack of fags... |  |

Very peculiar,but as vile as you find it i loved the stuff.
Was on a course up north for a few months years back and a Glaswegian lad Tam used to bring a few bottles down to last the week,w@nkered most nights on the stuff.
Btw my 1st official pint in a pub was a Tennents Extra in The Fox And Goose Hanger Lane.
Used to drink cans long before that though

Would have been a pint of bitter in either the White Hart in Chiswick, the Queen Vic in Ealing or the Kent in Ealing. All known haunts for the 14/15 year old drinker in the late 80s... And a few cheeky pre match halves in the Crown and Sceptre courtesy of the old man |  | | |

Wow! Black and Tan, that's a tipple from the past. My old man used to refer that as a Boilermaker. I never knew why and I don't think he knew either, but there you go.
My first beer in a pub was when I was 15 at some young farmers do somewhere in the middle of Wiltshire. Can't remember the name of the pub or place, probably the Ye Olde Dung Carte at Udder -Under- Moocow. I was with a bunch of yokels I got to know in a village we were holidaying in. I got well and truly pie faced and threw up on the way back in some blokes ancient Vauxhall Victor along with a couple of others. The driver who was drunk too[!!] seemed none too concerned. |  |
