      You might be a super taster like me and that’s why you find it absolutely disgusting despite everyone else loving it

      Like the taste but my system doesn’t agree with it. I feel bloated and it makes me have stone in my stomach.

      After a bit it settles and I can drink it. Rather have a wine or dark rum once every month or so.

      Well beer is amazing, but it’s the same as with coffee. You need to force yourself into liking it first and eventually it will taste good. I also might be biased because I have access to Bavarian beer, especially the small local breweries are just top notch.

        I’ve liked bitter flavors since apparently I could first eat, so I don’t think everyone has to force themselves.

        I prefer beer than soda and it can pair nicely with some foods but most of it simply doesn’t taste good on its own. “Beer is great” is mostly a social construct.

          I don’t know about that. Sure, society kind of pushes you to like and drink beer but I do actually find it refreshing. As I said, the small breweries actually make good beer that–especially in Bavaria where beer is typically less bitter.

      Seconded. I’m willing to believe that a decent amount of people like it, tastes changing from person to person, but I really tried and I feel like there might be a lot more peer pressure in there than we expect.

        I’d say it depends on the beer a lot, as well. Personally I like sours, but will occasionally want an IPA. The American-style beer is only tolerable after you get a few drinks in
