I do. I had just started drinking "craft" beer. (Blue moon, Paulener, etc). My buddy tells me to find Broken Halo by Widmer. That its delicious. The first drink and I thought my jaw was going to fall off. I choked through that bottle. 3 days later and I finished that six pack it was the gateway drug to a lupulin addiction of Biblical proportions.
So what was your first?

Funny, I can't remember my first! Probably not a good sign!

I can't remember what I ate for dinner last night, much less a beer I had over 30 years ago.

Dogfishhead 120 minute. No wonder for years I thought I didn't like IPAs.

Victory HopDevil. It was OK.. I thought it was a bit too bitter. Now I drink it and think nothing of it. Weird how you grow in your tastes of beer. I now get cravings for something hoppy.

Samuel Smith's India Ale; good enough when available. It took DfH 60-Minute to sell me to to the syle twenty years later.

My first was a local beer about 12 years ago and I vividly remember hating it. Bitter beer face inducing. Now I can't get enough of the stuff...

Yeah, it was terrible..I think It was a Stone Ruination...It was a few years ago. I probably wouldn't mind it as much now.

I have no idea what my first IPA was but I remember my first taste of a "hoppy" beer back in my college days when Miller Lite was our poison of choice and thinking that Sierra Nevada Pale Ale was very bitter. Now my favorite homebrews are 80-100 ibu big IPA's!

DFH 60 Minute. Now that I like IPAs so much I don't remember if I liked it or now. My first home brew IPA was awseome, though.
