 I'll admit to Annie Greensprings, Boon's Farm, and the like starting at
 about 16.
 Strohs <sp> beer, and a few other odds and ends.
 Got sober around 18 or 19.
 Started to appreciate Tennessee whiskey around 30, and Scotch ( single
 malts, mostly ) not long after.
 These days, a nice Chambourcin, Muskat, or Chenin Blanc is just fine.
 ( and sometimes a white merlot )
 
 These days, a 1/5 lasts about three years, and a decent bottle of wine
 a week and a half or so.

 Never much cared for beer, and still don't, but an occasional ( every couple
 of years or so ) bach beer, St. Pauli Girl, or something along those lines.
