It'd taste nearly the same with bottom-of-the-barrel shat... not that Grey Goose amounts to much more than marketing, but that's a different rant altogether. I've done it with bottom of the barrel shat is there is a massive difference, and if you hate on goose so much what "premium" vodkas do you like? | ||

But lately ive been trying some classic cocktails: Old Fashioned, Dry Martini, Tom Collins, Sidecards. All very delicious. I love the taste of beer but it just makes me feel too shitty and dehydrated to have more than 1. Oh and Im a big tequila fan too. Mostly just for sipping but I like a margaritia too (the fake premixed kind. Real margaritas way too sour for me lol). | ||

You're going to have to drink for more than one night to really get used to the flavor. I've probably gotten like about 9-10 times in the last year and it still all tastes like ass to me. It's got to be something you do on a semi-regular basis. | ||

They're out of Bend, and my god do they have some amazing beer. The only problem is they make far too many delicious one-offs. I've found myself hoarding cases in fear they may not make the same brew next season, only to enjoy it's 'replacement' equally. It's a vicious cycle  I haven't. Thanks for the tip, I'll have to check some out. | ||

I mean, for me it took me a while to get used to it, but around... oh... 14 beers in I feel pretty comfortable with the taste. Then again I chugged all of them, I never really just sip or slowly drink (I'm under age so... would be stupid to try and extend the period where I could get caught). And by the way, does anyone here not really mind the taste of vodka? I remember tasting it a looooooong time ago and feeling like I was drinking needles, but recently it was just like... water, almost. Not bad at all, but in my belly it burned like hell, in a good way haha. I don't want to sound like I am bragging, because I don't know if it was watered down or if my Russian genetics are just kicking in  | ||

Ya, a lot of people don't like beer at first (or ever). The drink you mentioned was made using amaretto, but you probably want to stick to simpler stuff at first. Rum+coke, vodka/cranberry, vodka/redbull or a screwdriver (vodka/orange juice) mostly just taste like their mixer (especially if you order them at a bar), so give one of those a try first. (this is assuming you are legal drinking age in your country obviously). On May 11 2012 11:43 SgtWaffles wrote: I haven't. Thanks for the tip, I'll have to check some out. Second that on Deschutes, great brewery. Try the black butte porter. | ||

One major problem is that 95% of what people drink at parties and what is served at bars is low quality stuff, mass produced to get people trashed. JackDaniels, Jose Cuervo, Smirinoff, and Captian Morgans are CRAP. A good whisky or tequila wont have that big ethanol aroma/flavour that makes people cringe after a shot. Get onto google and read some reviews. Theres far more options out there than most people realize. A bit of research and a couple extra bucks can get you something light years ahead in quality. However! It took me a long time to start enjoying the taste of alcohol. Some people never aquire a taste for it. Dont try to rush it. | ||
