I think I drank a total of about 3 glasses. Now that I'm home, my head is aching. When I looked in the mirror my face was red. I still prefer coke, beer is kinda tasteless and a bit bitter. I don't know how people can drink so much of it. really. edit: I wanted to go to the bathroom to pee, not to puke!    | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

A) The time B) The place C) The beer I only drink beer in the late afternoon/evening time or at a gathering of some type. But the kind of beer is huge imo. I personally only drink certain beers with certain meals. Like having MGD with a steak is good, or Pacifico with a taco is good. But everyone is diffirent, and its def an acquired taste, I used to hate it growing up. Now I love it when its (as Day[9] would say) appropriately timed. | ||

Not that it tastes good, but i can tolerate it very easy compared to liquors like rum and gin. P.S. why so many lightweights on TL? I just read that blog about someone drinking an "entire" 6 packBecause you have to train yourself, hasn't anyone seen the movie "Beerfest"? :D | ||

A little hint: When drinking alcohol, drink a lot of water along with it. Normally, this will prevent any bad hangovers.

We have more than enough "Beerfest"s when people start drinking before noon and finish sometime late in the night. And this goes on for a week... | ||

I mean how many people who try it for the first time actually liked it then? That does not prove anything, younger people have diferent taste then older ones. Most people liked sweets much more when they were younger. Many people try foods that they didn't like as a kid, and find out that they like them now. I liked dark coffee without sugar since my first cup. I was about 17 then. As for beer I liked the sweeter ones when I was younger but with time I had moved to bitter ones as my taste had changed. | ||

But it takes a while for be to get drunk. Though I personally don't like beer. The gassyness(?) is pure evil. Hard liquor is much better imo :3 | ||
