Beer: An Acquired Taste?

OK, I have tried off and on, and many tell me, "It's an acquired taste" but, after 20+ years of sipping, I still don't like beer.

I can drink it if it's ICE COLD, but as soon as it starts getting warm, I can't drink it.

Who likes beer? Why?

Who doesn't like beer? Why?

I like beer. Yes I prefer it ice cold, with ice chips floating in it. Although I will drink it till it becomes luke warm. No sense in wasting a good beer.

I drink it because I like the taste. I really enjoy my ice cold Shiner Bocks.

Bud light. I prefer it when it's cold and if you let it get warm you aren't drinking it fast enough.

Try drinking decent beer. Anything made by anheuser-busch, coors, miller, etc doesn't count.

Try a Guinness, a Bass and a Red Oak (if you can find it, if not try a Bell's Two Hearted Ale) then report back to us...

Gotta agree with Hersh on this one. I'd say it's an aquired taste.

Pilsner Urquell is tasty.



I started to like the taste of beer in my mid teens but drank it before that to get some heat on.
