Not so, you don't drink coffee without sweeteners.

Everyone that tasted beer the first time found it to be bitter, right? So why did you people persist?

Because it was fun to get a bit drunk of course. :)
Then you start liking the taste. It was the same with coffee for me. Took a while before I actually started to like the taste.

I do and have done for several years. Can't stand it with sugar(or milk), in fact I can't think of a single thing that I put sugar on or in. I love a nice bit of bitter, 70%+ cocoa chocolate.

Bitter stuff can be nice sometimes, and tbh I like anything with alcohol in it.

I also prefer bitter chocolate but I still don't like beer.

So what is it that draws you the most? The taste or the drunken feeling you get afterward?

I fail to understand why people kept on drinking beer, if they didn't like it the first time. WHY do you keep on drinking something, if you don't like it? Social pressure?
I did like it the first time I tasted. I rarely drink it though, drunkness does nothing for me.

Eech, I can't stand sweetened coffee. Never have, not since my very first cup.
Bitter can be a good thing, and beer is tasty. The malt, the hops, the bitter-sweet loveliness...
But still, only drink what you like. If you don't like beer, I'm sure there are plenty of alcopops or such you can try... ------

So you like the 0% alcohol beer just the same as say strong dark beer?

Well I'm not so much a lager fan, and most of the 0% beers taste like a low quality lager. Nothing against 0% beers in principle, though. Just a matter of taste. ------

Edited by: ReaperOfSly on 20/07/2008 10:48:54 People like beer because it tastes good. Do we really need any other reason? And the people who think it tastes horrible, you've obviously been drinking the wrong sort of beer. __________________________

Other way round for me - stopped drinking whiskey when I threw up over a taxi driver a couple of hours after eating spaghetti bolognese. Imagine the scene with an irate taxi driver with a head full of half digested spaghetti dangling over his head.
Now I stick to the odd cold glass of beer after a hard day's work.

your cravings must change as your metabolism slows down. I remember when I was around 6 thinking tomatoes, honey etc were bitter and disgusting, now they're sweet and delicious. Same for dark chocolate, strong cheeses, black coffee, even tea.
OP: Just push past it, it's about to get soooo good

Personally I don't like beer, I can't stand the taste. You'll find many people drink it to be macho or cool, a bit like smoking. _______

I'm more of a wine person, I dont think I actually know many other younger people like myself who like the red wine. Guess its not really marketed at the younger people unlike cheap beer and alchopops

Wrote a long post but then deleted it as it began to derail itself.
So, all I'm going to say is, I really like beer but I don't really think it's bitter. And even for things that are bitter (like the strong black coffee I drink around the clock)... It's an acquired taste, so get used to it! Or don't, we all have our personal preferences.
Just because something initially puts you off doesn't mean that you can't learn to appreciate it, and addiction or peer pressure needn't have anything to do with it.
Also: Soda is the only sweetened thing I can bear drinking. Tea with sugar/honey, alcoholic drinks... blegh

Given the choice on taste alone I'd go for soft drinks or juice above beer.
However that doesn't stop me drinking it.
Alcohol & taste wise, I like the new Pear ciders that are appearing, Weissbeers (Hoegarten etc.), and have recently become partial to Guinness (though I hated the stuff when I tried it in my early twenties)
Have never got on with any spirits apart from Amaretto which I stick into coffee given half a chance.
I quite like a gin & tonic too.
However, being a normal bloke from Lahndaan, I drink lager most of the time, so generally Carlsberg or something around the 4.5-5% mark.
Oh yeah, I bloody hate Wife Beater (Stella Artois) and the silly Tennents Super and Carlsberg Special Brew strength lagers (something bad happened during the 1994 world cup!).

Seeing as its basically impossible to get me drunk (and trust me, alot of wallets have been emptied trying) it would have to be the taste. I just happen to like the taste of alcohol and bitter beer provides a nice variation to that taste.
Also it has nothing to do with older people liking more bitter stuff. My favourite chocolate has been dark chocolate since the age of like 6.
