Bullshit. There's a bunch of PBR in this world, but don't go around saying beer isn't good. The bitterness can throw people off and the fact that some of them taste like horse piss can't be avoided, but you don't just drink it for the effects.

Reading is fundamental, yo.

I didn't say beer can't taste good. After you're used to it, it will. That doesn't mean it normally tastes good. No one is naturally drawn to beer for the taste until they've already learned to put up with it.

oh yeah, the difference between a beersh/horse piss and actual good beer with thick full flavor is huge. It will never taste like coke... cuz u know.... coke is like... crack... but, it does become an enjoyable drink. As for OP, usually the redness from a slight amount of alcohol is from the lack of an enzyme? I think... so it makes u all red and stuff...
But hey, tolerance is built up, so drink up son!!!

You have to start early with beer :p

My first beer was when I was 12-13 I think (my first "party" :p) Then again everybody starts drinking early here :p
Now that I'm in college, man... Drinks up lol

Beer is so delicious yet so versatile in its usage. You can enjoy it casually for lunch or get drunk by consuming plenty of beer. Additionally, there are a lot of different beers, like wheat beer, lager, pilsner etc. it is just a magic and wonderful world of awesome.

If you don't like beer, it is your loss. :D

If you have to ask, you don't know.

I will probably never try beer or any alcoholic drinks because they might ruin my liver

I don't lust for beer as much as I used to, but when I do it has to be strictly Asahi or Corona :>

Basically, it means it tastes like shit but you condition yourself to like it for the side benefits (like coffee.) After a while, beer seems to taste good and you might even crave it with a good meal or in a party environment, but don't delude yourself into thinking it's actually good.

Also, I assume you're asian so get used to the red face and getting dizzy pretty quickly. Just make sure you've got food in you and you're drinking water. *cough*

major bullshit man. don't try to tell everyone are like you.
I've always liked both beer and coffee.

Fair enough. Most people have a natural aversion to bitterness, which needs to be overcome over time by sensory overload, or may never be overcome. It's easier to overcome (or not detect at all) if you're a non-taster, which is like 20% of the population.

Beer's similar to bitter/spicey/pungent foods that don't seem naturally tasty at first but become delicious to some people over time. Like (dark) chocolate, coffee, kimchi, etc... You may end up never liking it but it's worth a shot to keep trying.

Not sure how much you drank or how drunk you got but if you got very drunk by drinking a little you should be careful if youre asian. (I presume you are since you have vietnam tag) I have several friends who can't drink at all or get drunk after just a beer. If you ask me they shouldnt be drinking at all because of the dangers involved.

Am I the only one that actually likes the taste of beer? I don't go out and get drunk, but I've had it. Never really disliked it, though it depended on the brand.

If you flush red then I dont think you can drink alot. Just try a little to know the taste and not to be lost during parties.

The truth is you shouldn't even be reading this thread. You don't need to be psyching yourself out with all this marginal advice on what to do / avoid / concentrate on.

Just be a kid and live your life.

I'm not saying you even read this, but there seems to be this stigma on TL that everyone requires this elaborate "build order" to accomplish the most mundane of tasks.

So true. But when I went to Whitewater for a frisbee tournament, all you guys had was cheese broccoli soup, and we got fantastically full beer imported from California.

Beer is empty calories. Not everyone likes it. And I do think for the most part it's an acquired taste. I mean how many people who try it for the first time actually liked it then?
