Alcahol Tastes Crap Unless You Drink A Lot of It

Reilly · 08-07-2006, 02:57 AM

Why is this?

And no, Im not drunk hahaha.

If I just have a sip of beer, its disgusting, and continues to be as I sip little bits more. I have to have a full 4 gulps before its like "WOAH! WIPE MY MOUTH THATS GOOD SHEET!"

Why is this?

maiu · 08-07-2006, 02:59 AM

Maybe because it takes a few sips for your tongue to get used to it??

Ryujiki · 08-07-2006, 03:00 AM

I do not drink and I do not want to drink,so I can say that beer smell bad and many people that drink said that at the beginning the beer taste bad.

Maybe you have to accostumate to the "awful taste"

psychosaiqa · 08-07-2006, 03:00 AM

hmmm...dunno. i had a glass of wine the other night and it took awhile before i started liking it. never had more than a few sips of beer though, can't stand the stuff. but maybe if a drank a hell of a lot of it, i wouldn't be able to tell...

Reilly · 08-07-2006, 03:02 AM

I dont just mean that once you get so drunk that you could taste battery acid and it would be delicious, but I'm sober right now, and was sipping at my Stella, hating it, not being able to imagine drinking the whole can, and then I just thought "Fuck it!" and drank half of it, and suddenly it tasted nice.

Weird.

yellow_fever · 08-07-2006, 03:02 AM

^(psychosaiqa) same here. I drink a glass of wine, but i only warm up to the taste after that one glass

Mimixxx · 08-07-2006, 08:05 AM

Well obviously it depends what you drink.

Beer is just horrible to me. Period. Wine tastes crap if you buy a cheap bottle. Good wine is lovely though (although I can't really drink it cos it makes me feel like I've been hit by a bus the next day)

However spirit with a mixer is nice...I could drink it all day. Mmm.

So my point is not all alcohol tastes like shit, but alot does.

Never drink in moderation kids...spoils the fun

TracieMorgan · 08-07-2006, 08:32 AM

I think it depends partly on what kind of beer you drink...If I'm stuck with Molson's or Blue...Canadian beers...I hate them. If I have a Smithwick's, I love it from the first sip! Beer is like coffee...it has to be brewed properly. And there are so many varieties out there that it could take a while to find a beer that suits your palate...some ppl never warm to beer...me, I LOVE IT...TOO MUCH!!!LOL!

MrLick · 08-07-2006, 09:52 AM

I like beer, a good beer taste good from the first sip to the last.

Redundancy · 08-07-2006, 10:03 AM

^agreed

osiris · 08-07-2006, 12:42 PM

it depends on what you like, you might drink some alcohol and think its terrible but try something else and love it, it all comes down to preference

badlydrawngirl · 08-07-2006, 01:12 PM

I think alcohol in general is hideous. I still drink though, in copious amounts, I guess it's the after-effects I like most.

Reilly · 08-07-2006, 01:28 PM

Hmm I think I just wasnt in a drinking mood last night.

osiris · 08-07-2006, 01:44 PM

well everybody gets into those moods some time or another

Space Cadet · 08-07-2006, 03:46 PM

I think it might be that the alcohol numbs your tastebuds after a couple of sips. Or it could be like when you walk into a room where someone's been eating fish, and the stench is overpowering, but within a couple of minutes you can't even smell it anymore.

It's a big part of the reason I don't drink, though. Even the stuff people say is supposed to taste good just doesn't, at least to me. I wouldn't drink to get drunk ever, so drinking something that tastes nasty just because doesn't make sense to me.

My brother got me to try Baileys recently- he said it would taste good. It did, but I was like "yeah, but it would taste so much better if it didn't taste like alcohol!"
