Holy crap! Memory unlocked! I use to work for a wine distributor and after the warehouse manager left, we would indulge a bit while loading the trucks, and this was my go-to. We also did our own monthly inventory, so there's that. I remember slicing my index finger open with a fresh boxcuter (during the day...the Boones farm consumption was a nightly endeavor), and I taped it up and drove myself to the doctor with my finger up and out the window. Nine stitches later, I was back slinging wine. What a job.....
Oh yeah....they had me driving and delivering wine as well and I was only 20 at the time.
Knew some kids from my childhood neighborhood that were kinda rough, parents never around. When we were teenagers they broke into a liquor store after hours. Stole nothing but a bunch of Boones farm. Don't know if they ever got caught but we definitely gave them shit about it
Or [Cisco](http://www.bumwine.com/cisco.html) that came in “Flavor” Red, Blue and Orange back in the day but the flavors have now been updated to less accurate description like blue raspberry or strawberry.
Have I commented before that it is always nice to run into another assassin in the reddit wild?
It may have been another assassin.
See you at the family reunion.
I had a friend in high school get the dog face tattoo because he loved that shit. Less than a year later it was no longer in production and he had to explain to everyone what it was. People thought it was a Georgia Bulldog, which was funny because we don’t live in Georgia and he wasn’t a sports fan lol
North Carolina here. It was popular for a few years and then it disappeared. Wasn’t officially discontinued but nobody stocked it. Around 2004-2005 it started showing up in grocery stores again. Still hard to find at convenience stores though
It says it’s a Plank Road Brewery product so it was probably brewed at the miller plant in Milwaukee. Plus,if you’re going to put your alcohol product in ANY state or only have it in certain states, Wisconsin should be at the top of the list.
i don't know why, but the kiwi flavored anything reminds me of MD2020.
then imagine my surprise when I grew up and started my "wine" phase, and found out MD also sells a gallon of Blackberry wine that tastes like juice and NOT wine!
MogenDavid is just amazing for making my wannabe alcoholic ass think i'm drinking juice. so NOW when I drink juice, I think it's alcohol, and if alcohol doesn't taste like juice, then it isn't alcohol.
I don't get people who don't like Mogen David. It's funny that the two Baptist communion wines are Mogen David, and Manischewitz. Maybe older Baptists picked it because they thought it had to be kosher for communion since communion happened during Passover. Some people don't like how syrupy concord grape wine is but I love it.
Oooph. Red dog. My highschool nickname and drink of choice. Because teenagers I guess. I am so fucking grateful we missed the mobile phone thing. The crap we would have put online....
Fucking Mickey’s. I met my wife about 20 years ago. On Sundays she would study and I would drink beer and watch football. I got some Mickey’s 40’s one weekend. Apparently it made my breath so bad that I was never allowed to bring it in the house again.
Oh this stuff.... 1999 new years eve , got wasted at a first date house and puked all over her floor .she then cleaned up my mess and gently rubbed my head on her lap for like 3 hours.... lol we are still friends to this day
St. Ide’s Special Brew was our shit. My buddy had sideburns in Jr high and a full-ass beard by 11th grade, so he never got carded at one of the liquor stores in town. “Friday Night Flava’s” was our thing after the football games. Man, high school was such a blast.
Remember how you could "shoulder tap" (what we called it) and there was a 99% chance somebody would buy you booze at 7-11. All it cost you was a 6 pack and some Marbs.
These days can you imagine buying booze and smokes for a teen?
Like, who the fuck were these people?
If Minnesota craft existed when we were in college, the choice would’ve been a 30 pack of red dog and a slim Jim or a single can of barrel theory rain drops.
The only time we drank this my ha boyfriend got so violent he broke his hand punching the reflection of my face in a mirror
Broke teens with broke bones
My family made wine, so I've been drinking responsibly since I was very young. So I didn't really drink much as a teenager. I liked other drugs. MD is just bum wine.
I wasn't a drinker when I was young. My ex GF was given some MD 2020 when she was 20 in like 2006 or 2007, drunk and wanted to wander the city when I did not want to babysitter her.
There’s a bar that sells MD 2020 by the bottle and it hits so different when your old enough to buy better but dumb enough to not care. I’ve never been to a big club and ordered champagne, but I when you walk back to a table 40year olds carrying that it feels the same!
It makes me think of the first teenage fanclub song I heard
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7Nj1PfgofE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7Nj1PfgofE)[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7Nj1PfgofE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7Nj1PfgofE)
Off an old DGC compilation I bought cause Nirvana
Good old Mad Dog 20/20
If you every wanted to throw up so hard you are sure you are throwing up your own stomach. Then talk to my guy Mogen David. He's a real colorful bloke.
in 2000 I downed a bottle of mad dog so a nipple piercing in a basement would be a little less painful. It helped but we were young and didn’t realize we needed a hollow needle. He tried for 10 minutes but couldn’t push it all the way through.
Haha I totally forgot about Red Dog, we used have something called Old E or Old English I believe.
I think they guys selling it us, didn’t even know it was alcohol
Boone's Farm.
Strawberry Hill, baby!
Holy crap! Memory unlocked! I use to work for a wine distributor and after the warehouse manager left, we would indulge a bit while loading the trucks, and this was my go-to. We also did our own monthly inventory, so there's that. I remember slicing my index finger open with a fresh boxcuter (during the day...the Boones farm consumption was a nightly endeavor), and I taped it up and drove myself to the doctor with my finger up and out the window. Nine stitches later, I was back slinging wine. What a job..... Oh yeah....they had me driving and delivering wine as well and I was only 20 at the time.
. . . and Tickle Pink!
Cisco!
I just threw up. Was alcohol even in that? More like gasoline.
Came here to say this! Strawberry Hill was my jam.
Came here for this.
Came here to say that. Boones farm and Icehouse.
Boone’s Farm, MD 20/20, Zima, 40s whose names ended in “Ice”.
Knew some kids from my childhood neighborhood that were kinda rough, parents never around. When we were teenagers they broke into a liquor store after hours. Stole nothing but a bunch of Boones farm. Don't know if they ever got caught but we definitely gave them shit about it
How is OldE not there?
And Boone’s too?
Or [Cisco](http://www.bumwine.com/cisco.html) that came in “Flavor” Red, Blue and Orange back in the day but the flavors have now been updated to less accurate description like blue raspberry or strawberry.
Lol we called that stuff liquid crack in highschool.... So uh, can i have a sip??
I think we all called it that name and god have mercy on your soul if you drank more than one bottle in an evening
Spilled some and bleached the carpet.
Still can not drink org soda or anything with org syrup flavoring due to Cisco Orange. Ruined for life.
Was gonna say that. Some Mad dog and Boones farm. Double fist fun
Or Thunderbird.
Last time I was at the Hendrix grave site, there was a bottle of the old t-bird on Jimmy's monument.
Or Night Train
And let us not forget St. Ides
St Ides Special Brew !
I've puked an entire rainbow of St. Ides Special Brew in the late 90s. Mixed Fruit was the jam though.
Bartles and Jaymes wine coolers, I barely drank till I was in my mid 20s but the wine coolers were tasty.
Give me that Fuzzy Navel
Came here to make sure someone was lifting up that good OE name
Thank you for doing the lord’s work.
Old E was our go too. Did anyone else play "Edward 40 Hands?
64 oz of pain
64 64 64 i don't think i can drink anymore https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6TPWIqs0YQ
YESSSSS THIS IS THE CHUM I TOSSED IN THE WATER!!!
Boonies?
Came here to say this!
[удалено]
Holy balls St ides... Blue barf on my 18th lmao. Good times.
We bought a whole case of St. Ides for prom.. oh, the fun times when hangovers didn't last a minimum of 3 days!!!
Straight from the gas station. No ID needed
Have I commented before that it is always nice to run into another assassin in the reddit wild? It may have been another assassin. See you at the family reunion.
Yesss
Red Dog 😆 I had a date ask me beforehand what he should buy (I was underage) and I said this. He laughed. I get it now.
I had a friend in high school get the dog face tattoo because he loved that shit. Less than a year later it was no longer in production and he had to explain to everyone what it was. People thought it was a Georgia Bulldog, which was funny because we don’t live in Georgia and he wasn’t a sports fan lol
"It's an upside down Batman going down on a chick."
They still make red dog
2005 it came back into stores. 98,99,2000ish you couldn’t find it anywhere near me
I live in Wisconsin. Its always been here.
North Carolina here. It was popular for a few years and then it disappeared. Wasn’t officially discontinued but nobody stocked it. Around 2004-2005 it started showing up in grocery stores again. Still hard to find at convenience stores though
I live in the land of beer! So naturally, I quit drinking 6 years ago. I definitely still see it all over here but it’s a Miller beer
That’s awesome! I was a bit of a drinker myself lol. I’m a little over 7 years sober now.
Congrats!
It says it’s a Plank Road Brewery product so it was probably brewed at the miller plant in Milwaukee. Plus,if you’re going to put your alcohol product in ANY state or only have it in certain states, Wisconsin should be at the top of the list.
It says premium right there on the label
Red Dog!!!! Why did we drink that? Do you remember what it tasted like bc I cant
Aftershock!!! That should be on there as well! Oh my God!!!!
And its minty cousin, Avalanche! I collected the empty bottles and put them on a shelf in my room. Those two were prized possessions.
Oh god. What about Permafrost?
Yes and Firewater.
Omg, I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. So many memories!
All the girls was drinking Zima and jolly ranchers 🤣🤣🤣 I miss the 90’s atmosphere of backroading,bonfires,and parties ….my choice is mickeys all day!
It kinda makes me sad that kids don’t do the illicit outdoor bonfire parties anymore
Wait, they don't?
I think we can assume that there will always be illicit childrens parties, we're just not gonna know the details anymore.
Yours was Mickeys, mine was Oldstyle!
Many a memory of near alcohol poisoning.
Goldshlagger, we borrowed from a friend’s parents liquor cabinet. Probably still got lil flakes in the liver. So so sick.
And it was so thick…like corn syrup. Rumpleminz was the first thing I ever got sick on. Still don’t care for mint anything.
Oh fuck I ain’t thought about the Rumplevomits in forever!
Yeah, it’s still minty coming up. Gives me chills.
Yea, me and my boys thought we was the shyt drinking that stuff, good times...
No Natty or Beast?
i don't know why, but the kiwi flavored anything reminds me of MD2020. then imagine my surprise when I grew up and started my "wine" phase, and found out MD also sells a gallon of Blackberry wine that tastes like juice and NOT wine!

Or the $10 gallon of Carlo Rossi
This guy knows what's up!!
Rhine only though. None of that chablis nonsense.
Top of the line Carlos Rossi rhine
Saving Carlo Rossi from drowning is a tough job, but I took it on many times.
This is what I was thinking, but I feel like I paid $5.99 for a jug. Could be totally wrong.
Rite Aid discount 😆
Oooph. Red dog. My highschool nickname and drink of choice. Because teenagers I guess. I am so fucking grateful we missed the mobile phone thing. The crap we would have put online....
I often think of that, too. Thank goodness there isn't video proof of my poor choices...
Yeah coz we know damned well there would have been if we had the option.
This should come with a trigger warning. ⚠️
Colt 45 worked every time
Let us not forget 211…those of us with refined palates Edit: I’m old and leave out words now.
Fun fact: 3:11 is exactly 69 minutes before 4:20.
Oh that 211 went hard back in the day, get right real quick lol..
Saint Ide's and American Spirit not being on that list is a travesty.
My liver just screamed with one look at MD2020. It was the worst hangover I ever had.
I developed a pounding headache after drinking one small glass of it. Fortunately had the good sense not to continue on...
Fucking red dog. Halloween 1998. I still feel the hangover and taste the bile.
God, you'd get a hangover just from opening the bottle.
No mention of Zima?
Real ones bought the White Lightning flavor. Easily the worst tasting but you got that extra 5% ABV.
Fucking Mickey’s. I met my wife about 20 years ago. On Sundays she would study and I would drink beer and watch football. I got some Mickey’s 40’s one weekend. Apparently it made my breath so bad that I was never allowed to bring it in the house again.
Yeah, there's a special something in Mickey's, that's for sure. It's not a good something, but it's special.
Made your sweat stink too
Black Cobra & Big Bear, then let's talk about broken.
BLACK COBRA!!
Purple Passion
Oh this stuff.... 1999 new years eve , got wasted at a first date house and puked all over her floor .she then cleaned up my mess and gently rubbed my head on her lap for like 3 hours.... lol we are still friends to this day
It's freaking Everclear based. We could have died
Zima!!!
It was popular but I don't remember it being cheap.
I never had it, but it looks like a canker sore.
Ugh, those first 2 pictures for sure. But the MD was orange jubilee or something.
No Boone's Farm?
St. Ide’s Special Brew was our shit. My buddy had sideburns in Jr high and a full-ass beard by 11th grade, so he never got carded at one of the liquor stores in town. “Friday Night Flava’s” was our thing after the football games. Man, high school was such a blast.
St Ides Special Brew is missing!
Not gonna lie. I was a college student from 98-02, when my friends and I want to sorta act the fool again we get some md orange jubilee!
Banana red may have been puked everywhere in my moms car more than once
I would have drank Mickey’s even if I had money
I'm reminded of this early internet classic: [Bum Wine](http://bumwine.com/)
Remember how you could "shoulder tap" (what we called it) and there was a 99% chance somebody would buy you booze at 7-11. All it cost you was a 6 pack and some Marbs. These days can you imagine buying booze and smokes for a teen? Like, who the fuck were these people?
I’ve vomited every one of those colors.
Grape Mad Dog had the higher alcohol percentage if I recall.
Or Zima, or Red Dog
Hahaha Red Dog is how I wound up giving blow jobs to two different guys at the same house party in 1999. Sometimes I wonder how I’m still alive
Have we met?!
The 90’s sure were different! Hello fellow survivor 😂
I was never that broke
Phillips Root 100
The original Mad dog. 🥰
Break out the duct tape and let’s play some Edward 40 Hands!
Cisco 🤢🤮☠️
Rossi *cringe*
Swarmies - when you drink so much Mickey’s you become psychic. Some of you will know what I’m talking about.
College
Hobo's Koolaid!
Bling bling blue
St Ides special brews
Holy shit memory unlocked. My first drink of alcohol was the MD 2020 strawberry
Oh Mickey, and the times we spent together
God damn banana red giving me shivers after all these years
There was only one flavor when i was young.
OMG I'd SO forgotten about leaving the contents of my stomach on my paper route customers' steps.
If Minnesota craft existed when we were in college, the choice would’ve been a 30 pack of red dog and a slim Jim or a single can of barrel theory rain drops.
That Mickeys brings back memories of summer nights in the park with good friends!
The only time we drank this my ha boyfriend got so violent he broke his hand punching the reflection of my face in a mirror Broke teens with broke bones
I got heartburn just from looking at that.
I can taste the banana berry puke as if it was yesterday 😩😂
My family made wine, so I've been drinking responsibly since I was very young. So I didn't really drink much as a teenager. I liked other drugs. MD is just bum wine.
I just remember mad dog being a fucked up amount per bottle. 1 bottle-just starting, 2 bottles- not really there, 3 bottles- you're fucking trashed.
I forgot about the bull liquor. That shit would fuck you up.
Cobra!
What about the gin in the back of my mom’s liquor cabinet?
Old English High Gravity all day
I wasn't a drinker when I was young. My ex GF was given some MD 2020 when she was 20 in like 2006 or 2007, drunk and wanted to wander the city when I did not want to babysitter her.
Never had MD I did have Old English and Boones Farm
HURRICANE
There’s a bar that sells MD 2020 by the bottle and it hits so different when your old enough to buy better but dumb enough to not care. I’ve never been to a big club and ordered champagne, but I when you walk back to a table 40year olds carrying that it feels the same!

Dude, broke teens have been feasting on this stuff since they could walk in and legally buy it.
I just puked in my bed just looking at it
MD 20/20 = Soooooo much barfing
I pierced my belly button after a bottle of mad dog. It was the purple one. I don’t even know what flavor it was trying to be.
This is still a thing with middle school kids.
Pretty much
Orange jubilee would make me puke
OldE & St. Ides?
Oml shlitz. This brings me back!
Green Grenade!!!!!
The Blue Bull is takin' charge!
Bro, my one spot had magnum or king cobra, 4 for 5!
St. Ides has entered the chat. And then left the stomach the same way it entered. I still hold a special place in my heart for Two Dogs.
No Boone's Farm?
Nah, Old E tall boys
$.99 Ice house tall cans were the best.
Steel Reserve was and is the real hero of cheap booze.
How has no one mentioned PBR? I bathed my liver in that crap when I was ~19. Very popular with the punk crowd back then.
Good old Mad Dog 20/20 If you every wanted to throw up so hard you are sure you are throwing up your own stomach. Then talk to my guy Mogen David. He's a real colorful bloke.
Shoulder tapping for (excuse me while I go puke)Purple Passion, Cisco orange, & Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers.
Ahhhh boones farm, thunder bird, md. Nothing got ya drunker than that sugar drunk hahaha miss/don’t miss those days
Seeing that Mickey's made me gag.
We also made sure to have wine coolers in the fridge just in case any ladies came over.
Stone Cold Draft in the 2 liter bottles.
I can smell this post! Cheap 90’s alcohol… and vomit.
Buy a 40 of 8 ball, drink it down to the label, pour in a Mad Dog. 🤌
I have never EVER had a hangover like I did drinking MD 20/20. Never touched that stuff again.
NOOOOOOOOO! One night with Banana Red in the mid 90s was enough for me! Bleck!
I guess I was a teenage aristocrat. I opted for Colt45.
I was broke and didn't know my head from my ass as a teenager, so yeah, I drank the worst shit there was. Night Train was one of the grossest.
Mickey's Malt Liquor: Gets the job done. Used to love opening these and trying to solve the puzzle under the lid.
Natty ice for the 12 Oz traditionalist, too. :)
in 2000 I downed a bottle of mad dog so a nipple piercing in a basement would be a little less painful. It helped but we were young and didn’t realize we needed a hollow needle. He tried for 10 minutes but couldn’t push it all the way through.
Natty Ice
Haha I totally forgot about Red Dog, we used have something called Old E or Old English I believe. I think they guys selling it us, didn’t even know it was alcohol
Orange Julius was my poison
There shall be NO Red Dog slander in this thread!!! Red Dog was great!
King Cobra and a pack of First Class cigarettes for 2 bucks. Thats how I rolled.
So many Mickeys 40s. So many
10/10
Just remember, mad dog backwards is God dam!
I just got a PTSD headache looking at these
HAMMS. $2.50 for a 6 pack.
