Just tried beer for the first time in my life

[Deleted]

It was the most revolting thing I ever drank.

I mean, the smell was like gasoline, & it had a very acidic taste. I immediately started retching.

That sounds like hyperbole from a Weiner, but like coffee, its something I can't understand why its popular.

I'm going back to being a teetotaler.

What brand did you drink? I can only stomach a few brands of beer. Off the top of my head Stella, Viking, and Gull. The latter two I have only found in Iceland so far. Go figure.

I'll catch flack for saying it, but beer is gross. It's liquefied rotted grains.

Microbrewery in Indianapolis called Sun King. They only make ales, which I know from reading to have more of a bite then lagers, which are brewed & stored cold.

Well if you like coffee maybe you would enjoy a coffee porter or a dark beer.

As long as you're of age, I'd suggest trying a Belgian. Not Blue Moon, but something like Allagash.

When I started drinking, I felt the same. I was that dude in the corner sipping a Mikes Hard.

I hear you on coffee. Damn near everyone loves their coffee, but to me it's just the nastiest, most bitter shit on the planet. And that's even with sweeteners.

Consider yourself lucky. You don't have a palette for one of the potentially most self-destructive things they allow.

I don't like beer, I've always been more of a spirits type of drinker.

MORE FOR ME!!!!

[BrodietheSlayer]

Yeah, even the best beer I've ever had (Guinness) has JUST been drinkable. When I drink, I want something that is actually going to taste good, so, I'm either a mix liquor with pop/whatever or Mike's Hard/Smirnoff/NYFRB type of guy.

[ToyfareMark]

If I'm drinking alcohol, I want something that tastes bad, and is harsh so I know its gonna mess me up.

[AwamoriRock]

If it isn't for you it isn't for you, but there is such a wide variety of flavor profiles in types and brands of beer that it's not really possible to pin them all on one you don't like. That said, even with big drinkers there are quite a few who just can't go with beer itself.

Yeah starting out with what sounds like an IPA isn't gonna work.

With beer/alcohol it's all about trying new things and finding somehting for your palate. I would recommend a nice hard cider to get you started properly.

Yeah it sounds like you went with an IPA... (though no beer I have ever seen smells like Gasoline) which are ultra bitter bombs mainly as the idea was that the beer would keep it's hoppy flavor on the journey to India (if I remember my beer history right)

not at all the one you'd want to start with especially if you don't like Bitter flavors.

that said I'm not a huge beer drinker myself, I usually stick to Whiskey if I'm drinking.

[abjordans]

if you keep drinking it you will like it.

If you put a few grains of kosher salt in with the coffee grounds, the bitter taste goes away. Just a dash.
