When I was 10, my uncle snuck me some alcohol during a party and he said "Don't tell your dad!"
Tasted horrible!
Still don't drink today.

No, I never saw a point to it and I have never had much respect for people who drink for the sake of acting obnoxious and stupid. When I was in high school I wouldn't even associate with the kids who were drinking or doing drugs. Alcoholism runs in my family and I have witnessed the damage first hand. It can destroy lives.

I have tasted alcohol before and don't much care for the taste. Beer smells like condensed cat piss to me and I don't understand how anyone could drink it.

Bourbon and water occasionally. Pale Ale or IPA daily.

Not much at all, especially now that I am focused on increasing my cardiovascular endurance. I just drink craft beer for the taste and relaxing buzz when I drink now. Stouts and IPA's are my favorite. Of the season's local craft beer I tried, it has been nothing but wonderful so far. The flavors remind me of Winter and Christmas. They tend to taste of lots and lots of chocolate, licorice, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, cloves, it's great.

I turned 21 two days ago. I tried Keystone. It was so bitter. Years of being accustomed to soda made me realize I'm used to sweet, tangy, and whatever Coke, Sprite, and Dr. Pepper categorize in taste. They say all brands of beer taste different. I really don't want to test that myself.

Nah, never. It's a control issue for me. I like to maintain complete cognitive control at all times and alcohol definitely affects that. No disrespect for any of the people out there who enjoy a drink, though.

Keystone is awful cheap piss in a bottle. This is why most people hate the way beer tastes, because of the cheap "popular" beer that fills most of the beer selection in stores. If you want a slightly more expensive but good beer that is kind of sweet, and easy to find in most grcoery stores, I recommend Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale.

That's actually pretty easy to get in a few of the major supermarkets here in the UK.

^^^ :o But pale ale is supposed to be bitter! :?


I'd say try a Shiner Hefeweizen. It's really more of a summer beer, but it has a sweet citrussy character... and if you need more, you can always add an orange wedge (personally, I do not "fruit" my beer).
