Do you like the taste of beer?

It has to be good beer. I don't like pale ales or bitters, but a good porter or stout is great.

Beer is such a broad term. I'm not fond of most lagers or bitters, but nothing beats a good porter or an amber ale.

it obviously depends a lot on the beer. I like Guiness.

Not unpleasant, but nothing special.

And it depends a lot on the beer in question. I don't like dark beers (porters and stouts) very often. I'm very fond of lambics. My fallback is usually Bass, these days.

Nasty stuff... I make my boyfriend brush his teeth if he drinks any too.

Beer is one of those things that I try every so often to see if I like it better, but I never do. Every once in a while there's a beer I can stand a few gulps of, but I can rarely finish even half a beer like th

No, and I refuse to believe that anyone else does either. :)

Those I have tasted vary a great deal, from awful to mildly pleasant. I never order a beer, there are too many other better drinks. ***Dolemite: what was it you used to say about people who type in all caps?

Good quality beer I can drink maybe 2-3 beers, but that's it. Afterwards, I don't like the taste anymore. I enjoy beer better with certain foods, as well. I enjoy wine better.

Hmmm... of course! Specially Dutch one...

Never developed a taste for beer, and doubt I'm missing much. When I do consume alcohol, it is usually either a reasonably nice wine (white & sweet preferred), or a mixed drink such as a b52 shot. I'll also drink the occasional marguerita.

I like malty beers as opposed to those with a more hops flavor.

Elijablue: I seem to remember him mentioning something about that too hehehe

Depends on the beer. Also, I loathe the taste of alcohol; but I like the breadiness of the taste of beer. Few things are more vile than Budweiser.

Yes, and almost always. It would have to be a really strange brew for me to not like it. I do think that it is an acquired taste, like many things are, but... Crimson, JCDino, EB, Copprtop, and Lorax: You will all die for this outrage!! EB: I changed my letters for your benefit. However, I'm guessing that there is no need to point out the obvious (in that you simply were trying to be facetious), but I wasn't typing in all caps. Someone once told me something: caps equates to yelling, or something like that. My gripe was that some people were yelling inappropriately.

Bass, Guinness, Tennents Lager -- sometimes the mid-range brews you get at brew pubs (mid range as against micro, they're not quit microbrews. .). None of these Kiwi-strawberry-malt-liquor with a double twists for moi

I prefer the darker beers (Guinness), and weird beers (Hefeweizen, Sammi Chlaus - 12.5%!). Hmmm...okay... I guess it would be more accurate to say that I am a snob and dislike most mass produced American beers.

But, then again, I don't drink.

Beer is just so gross. And, from the number of people who have told me "Well, you don't taste it after the first 3," I have to assume that many people agree.

It's definitely an acquired taste. After years of just occasionally drinking beer & not liking it, I realized that I did like it after all.

"beer" is a lot of different things

No. (Ok, ok, I've had one or two that were ok, but not enough to justify a "yes, but not always" answer.)

Of course, this only counts for good beer. Bad beer is still bad beer.

It was too bitter at first. The same as wine, I trained myself to drink it because everyone else did. Now I actually like it. I still like Amaretto Sours better tho.

Mmmm... beer

Beer is always great for 1 pint and is undrinkable by the eighth. Mind you in the immortal words of Monty Python: "we find your American beer a little like making love in a canoe, - fudging close to water"

Yuck. Rotting grain. Why would anyone drink that?

I might drink it on a really hot day... but in general I don't because I am really not fond of the taste.

Smithwicks Ale is good, and Corona (with a nice slice of lime) but regular beer sucks. People drink it to get drunk, and that's it.

i dont drink

Quality beer, yes. Most stuff, no.

Not really dark beers like... Guinness

Yes, but not always. I only like good hearty beers. I don't like pilsners, or the stuff the major American breweries try to pass off.

I generally dislike anything with alcohol. When I drink it is usually to get drunk. and beer tastes okay after the first 6 or so.

I don't drink, but have tasted it, thought it tasted like pi$$. I do like however black beer (it's almost totally non-alcoholic), ginger beer and root beer.

Ahhhhhh....nectar of the gods! A hot day and a cold beer are the perfect combination.

I want to say Yes, Always, but then I realize that Bud & its evil cousins are really considered beer, and not piss.

I like the taste of good beer. This does not include the insipid substances sold in the mass market under that name.

If I can get past the first two without gagging I've got it made.

beer : is that lager or beer. You see, in england beer can mean both,

in the US it also means both, as opposed to wine, liquor, soda, juice...beers taste different, but they do all have a tendency to taste of hops and malt

I am trying to learn to, I just can't seem to!

I've never tried it. I'm under-age and it smells gross.

I assume we are talking nice nutty bitter as in English warm beer? Fizzy American lagers really have hardly any taste at all.

YES!!!!
