I never understood why people like beer, I mean does it really taste good to you? I've tried all types of alcohol and beer is the only one that I can't drink, is it just me? Are my taste buds weird? Because I've never been able to finish a beer in my life,I can take shots of everything but beer nope,so tell me what it tastes like to yall because I'm curious.

Some people like broccoli and some don't. Same thing.
I love the taste of beer.
everyone has a different preference, and your signature is so true

Beer taste just grows on you dude. And there are many flavored beers that would kick the ass of mixed drinks any day.
shareYeah I agree what the poster above me said. Its not the same as people just not liking broccoli and some liking it, beer grows on you. No one likes the taste when they start, but after a while, everyone likes some sort of beer. Start drinking it, and in a few months you will crave it on a hot summer day.
Well the same could be said about smoke (of any kind, even hair) or heroine or whatever. Just because you build up a tolerance and/or addiction to a substance doesn’t make it good. Alcohol still has no nutritious value or use even if you like it.

I used to work in a beer store. The pay sucked, but I was getting unemployment so whatever. Most fun job I ever had.
You know how they say, do what you love and you will never have to "work" a day in your life? Well I love beer. I loved drinking beer beer, and i loved talking about beer. I worked in an upscale beer distributor. I was a beer somalier, or what ever you call a wine expert.
Beer is looked at like its lower class, a beer expert is somehow less than a wine expert. Because wine is viewed as more "upper crust". But how do you get to be a wine expert? by drinking a lot of wine! how do you get to be a beer expert? By drinking a lot of beer! But beer has a more complex taste than wine, it has a wider appeal in America, and its a common drink. There is no pretence to beer. i don't care if you are making 20,000 a year or 250,000 a year, when you statrted drinking, in america, you drank beer. And its the common thread that joins all of us, despite faith or ethinity or economic background.
Despite all the things that we may differ on, there is one thing the vast majority of all of us can agree on, beer is great.
If I won the lottery, what would I do if my job was a diversion rather than a need? I'd sell beer. A diversity of beer, and talk to my customers about beer, and drink beer, and if it weren't for the DUI laws, I'd drink beer with them while i tld them about how great I think this beer is, and how it may be great for there needs.
I like beer.

I started with a simple beer i think steel reserves but then afterward tried dos ecese (dont know how to spell is but translated...two X's)

And then one morning when your liver spalshes out with your daily dump, you'll regret every single swig. I'm a big tequila fan. But moderation is the key, pal. That isn't to say that you can't get completely sloshed off the stuff every once in a while. But 7 shots a day of something that your liver can't efficently filter is a death sentence.
Before you give up on beer entirely, circumvent the light stuff and try a variety of micro-brews. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

It could also depend on what type of beer you drank. If you drank something as s#itty as Budweiser or Coors light, then yeah, you probably would hate beer. I also disagree on it being a taste that has to grow on you. I hated beer when I first started drinking but because it was Budweiser, Schmidt's, crappy stuff like that. Once I found a beer that tasted good, I enjoyed drinking it for the taste, not just for getting drunk (as a teen of course).
My wife absolutely despises the taste of beer, so it's not for everybody. There are a number of different styles of beer that will all taste different as well, such as IPA's, Stouts, Lagers, Pilsners, Fruit/Vegetable beers, etc. If you can find it, I'd suggest trying a Lindemans Kriek from the Brouwerij Lindemans in Belgium (if you have a Total Wine store near you, they may carry it as I found it in their store in Fort Lauderdale). It's a cherry flavored lambic that was most excellent. Try it and see if you like that kind of fruity tasting beer.
Try Desperados (sp?). It's beer mixed with tequilla from France. Sounds nasty, I know, but it's the best beer out there.

YEungling is very good. Can't get it in Boston, though so's I drink New Castle now.
Sam Adams is pretty bad, IMHO.
So if you hate beer, how can you say American beer is really bad ass?
share@theDuke-If by American beer, you mean Bud, Coors, and Miller.. then blame the Germans. Afterall, they brought over the recipes for many of the light, watery, lagers.
"The key is, you've got to be crazy to maintain your sanity"
Yeah, that's why it's the oldest alcoholic beverage in the world. lol

Go and taste some German beer. I prefer Franziskaner or Erdinger. If you have tasted good beer of the sort Weißbier, then you will have a whole new standard of what good beer should taste like.
shareFranziskaner Hefe-Weisse is excellent. Erdinger Weissbier is another great choice. Some other great German brews I've tried are:
Ayinger Celebrator Doppelbock
Spaten Premium Lager
Spaten Oktoberfest
Konig Ludwig Weissbier
Einbecker Schwarzbier
Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Urbock
Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Marzen
Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Weizen
Weltenburger Kloster Asam-Bock
Pinkus Organic Hefe-Weizen
Köstritzer Schwarzbier
Tucher Kristall Weizen
There are many different beer styles so to say beer sucks is very ignorant. I'm sure you tried a coppery tasting lager and I don't really blame you if you didn't like it. Try a pale ale or a stout next time, but not Guinness. If you can find Stone, get one! All of there beer is amazing.
shareI've milled through this thread a number of times, and finally have a solution for you. Try Trappistes Rochefort 10. Simply stated, it's liquid heaven. I wouldn't necessarily recommend killing a sixer(a-It's pricey for even a single, b-The alc content is somewhere in the twelves, and c-The taste is very rich). Yet, for consuming one or two, it's AMAZING! Pretty sure this stuff will alter your world.
