Is beer an acquired taste?

[ChaoZ]

I've tried so many different kinds of beer/alcohol and never much like any of them.
I've tried:
Heineken
TsingTao
White Soju
Sake
Martell
Malibu

They're all too bitter. I would like Malibu more if the initial taste wasn't so sweet. That and the after taste doesn't mix too well for me. Should I just stick with soda or keep experimenting with different brands?

 

[FoBoT]

maybe you are trying too hard

 

[Sukhoi]

Try some Blue Moon.

 

[Super56K]

Nobody can say you don't give it your best. That's for sure.

 

[Linflas]

Yes, after I had my first beer I aquired the taste. :beer:

 

[pontifex]

yes

 

[ChaoZ]

Ah screw it then. Guess I will just stick with coke.

Yeah, I'd say it is... but it's not too tough to acquire. I acquired it in college. We'd start with the "good stuff" (Coors Light) then when we got a buzz we'd switch to Bud Light (give me a break, I was poor!). Now I actually enjoy the taste of cheap American beer.

i've tried several brands of beer and have yet to find one that i can comfortably drink.

quit drinking terrible beers. Go get a good heff or almost anything from belgium.

The way to like beer is to drink crap like Natty Light and the Beast to start off. Then you can drink anything. Worked for me.

Work twelve hours nonstop on your feet & then come home to a few SNPAs. You will enjoy beer that much more.

why acquire a taste for something which is not really good for you and also costs money?

I wish I had thought of that before I learned to like it.

 

[MBrown]

Yes and I don't like it. Root Beer is the best drink ever!!!

 

[2Xtreme21]

Alexander Keith's is the best beer I've had, yet I've not be privileged to try much German et al. beer... and I can't even get any Keith's here.

agreed but I tried to original brew... bleh tastes too bitter.

However guinness is still great compared to those watered down beers. Just drink water for god's sakes.

Have you tried MGD (Miller Genuine Draft)? I tried Corona and felt like puking. Ugh.

I don't know why, but I don't like drinking he last 2 sips at the bottom. Warm temperature and foaming tastes gross.
