Boilermakers

[GSCole]

The first time that I remember drinking wine, was as a teenager, at a
celebration of a relatives' religious confirmation, in the late 1950s.
Knowing that my parents didn't permit me to drink alcohol, someone
offered a wine highball, which turned out to be a glass filled with Coca
Cola, and topped with wine.  A couple of my cousins used much less Coke
in their drinks.
