I mean honestly - do you enjoy the taste of it? Honestly?

I like to drink occasionally - but beer has got to be the grossest thing. . .

There are many things more gross than beer. Like sucking "it" for beer.

Describe what it tastes like to you, to me it is like sickening carbonated rotten water. . .

Glad you hate it. That just means more for the rest of us.

Mike's hard lemonade would be a good place to start getting used to the taste.

However, I started there and never left. :(

I drink beer mainly because hard liquor knock me out quickly and the hangover is not as severe.

I prefer Newcastle or Guinness if I'm having beer. Otherwise, it'll be my Apple Martini with gummy worms :)

Good beer is one of the most heavenly things ever. Good beer does not mean Budwieser, I mean GOOD beer.

Give me a good cask ale and I am a happy man.

Prefer in order:

IPA (in Atlanta try Sweetwater 420)
Bitter
Porter
Scotch Ales
Oatmeal Stouts

I only use american cr@p beer for cooking.

It tastes good. And in the immortal words of Dave Barry:

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."

My drink of choce when being social is either tequlia (cold and straight) or if a mixed drink seven and seven. . .

I enjoy a good margarita too, if someone else is going to the trouble of making them. . .

I feel sorry for those that chose to drink alcohol.

Consuming alcohol is a sign of weakness.

And many people would say that takillya is one of the most vile substances you could pay to drink.
