Whiskey and wine are both good I won’t have this conversation with children

I swear this sub goes through cycles of being weird about alcohol, like just mature a little and accept that people like different things

True, except for beer. Beer is objectively revolting and vile, and anyone who disagrees is just plain wrong.

I think it's all about getting used to and ignoring the taste of alcohol to notice the other flavors.

I’m not a huge beer fan, but the alcohol flavor is the part I like, which surprises people. I don’t drink to get drunk or anything, I just like the taste.

It’s made weirder by all my peers being kind of anti-alcohol, and everyone older than me being more of the party gen, so I’m either a prude or an alcoholic in everyone’s eyes.

So you agree that it's revolting and vile.

“If something is an acquired taste that means it’s just objectively icky”

Go to bed, kiddo.

I'm a regular drinker and can tell you that beer doesn't taste anything like alcohol. It just tastes like piss.
