I'm 25, never drank beer (or alcohol in general) because I'm a friendless loser and the opportunity never presented itself
I'm accustoming myself to alcohol because drinking is expected at work parties (the first time I drank more than a literal sip of alcohol was whisky at a work party)
I'm trying beer for the first time today, 4.8% lager, and I don't see the point to be desu
it doesn't taste bad, it just doesn't taste good either, like worse carbonated water
I feel like if you want to get drunk there has to be a more effective method
I'm only like 200ml in btw, I get that getting drunk is one of the main points but I expected more of what might be one of the most popular drinks in human history

no, man, it all tastes like ass. getting drunk is the only point. you only enjoy the taste after being an alcoholic for so many years.

My birthday is June 30th.
I turned 25 couple days ago.

This is my favorite beer.
I will never drink anything besides this beer.

I'm undiagnosed schizophrenic.
This beer is godly.
I will never drink anything besides this beer.

Alcohol doesn't taste good, it is not the point at all. Getting drunk isn't the point either, the point is get to that sweet little spot when you can feel yourself a bit less inhibited. You should feel it at some point when you finish that beer or maybe with another one.

Excellent, finish that can, pull up one of your favorite annie-mays, and then finish 5 more and you WILL understand. Good luck, brother.

i hate the taste of alcohol and didn't really start drinking until 25 as well. I'm only 27 now but i still don't really like it. i only started drinking to try to forget about being depressed but that didn't help or last very long. i feel like alcohol is a way people cope with their shitty lives

Dude no fucking WAY, that's deep. I thought I was getting wasted every weekend alone in my apartment because my life was GOOD. Damn, I should probably see a fucking THERAPIST or something. You should be like a philosopher or something.

It's fizzy and nice and you can't taste the alcohol until you're drunk enough that you don't care anyway. It's just like a bread-y, yeasty tasting sparkling water. Liquor tastes like hand sanitizer no matter what, never really got into it.

Beer to me is more of a cultural thing. Youre a little retarded to drink beer alone if you dont care for the taste (not you specifically, Im proud of you for trying new things). Once you get more accustomed to the taste, picture yourself sharing a beer with the boys and itll earn some authenticity. Not sure where youre from, but in America beer is a masculine drink and it shouldnt be removed from that context.
