[tarkil]

anyone here who's sayin they don't like beer just isn't drinking the right beer.

who said they didnt like beer?

I said...
Well 1 or 2 is OK (I'm talking about good beer here), then it just tastes bad...

I like the taste of a good beer.  I just dont like drinking shit tons of it.

[tarkil]

Yup, my point right there....  It's just plain impossible for me to get drunk with beer...

But I love having a nice cold and tasty beer after work.

The best one still being :

i wasn't pointin' at anyone in particular with the comment, but after reading back a few pages i saw some people saying stuff along those lines.

and for me i like drinking a little beer, and i also like drinking a shit ton of beer.  i cant get shitfaced too often but it occasionally holds it's place in my weekend routines. 

im usually drinking a couple 6 packs a week.  ive been working on a 6er of stone ipa and a 12 of pabst this past week.  i've got an anniversary pig roast at a local brewery close to where i live on sat which should be awesome.

I was the one that said I didn't like beer.  Perhaps I haven't had the right one.  All the ones I've tasted taste the game.. .and it tastes horrible.   Eek.

Beer is as diverse as wine, especially these days with all the new brewing techniques.

For example a lot of my female friends who otherwise hate beer have been knocking this back lately:

Point being theres a shit-load of variation in taste out there atm.Pretty sure theres one you would dig...just takes time to find I guess.

if you think all beer taste the same.  You need to try some new beers sinner.  There have been a lot of good suggestions in this thread ( some bad ) but yeah.  go out and buy a nice beer and give it a go.  Beer is sort of an acquired taste though.  I only liked light beers at first (when I was like 15) then I started working with this dude that was big on dark beers and he always bought them for us while we were working, so of course I drank what I could get.  At first it tasted like shit.  But after a while I could no longer go back to the light stuff.

I was actually reading this article on how beer has actually found its way into high society.  As in if there is a really nice banquet or restaurant or whatever where whine was the traditional beverage.  Now it is becoming more and more acceptable to have a nice beer instead of a wine.  They even countered the whole white wine = light meat, red wine = dark meat, with some sort of formula for what beers to drink with what dishes. 

[fireflyry]

Yeah I've seen a bit of that and most restaurants here have clicked on to having a decent beer selection where as 10 years ago they would have 3-4 choices max.Now it's more like 10-15.

[Fireal1222]

yeah. most restraunts around here are the same way

and the restraunts with really good selections. usually get the best business

i just picked up a case of Troegs Nut Brown Ale

beautiful beautiful stuff
