    Yea, alcohol tastes kinda disgusting, it always has some weird aftertaste that reminds me of when i accidentally get some shampoo in my mouth. Like non-alcoholic versions of the same drink doesnt have that soapy aftertaste.

    Beer is kinda bad even without alcohol though, I have only tried one Latvian cherry beer that I liked. Wine also has that soapy aftertaste except for the wine that people just brew at home in Georgia, I loved that wine but that’s not really something I can get from a store.

      I stopped drinking 8 or so years ago. I was quite the heavy weekend drinker. The longer i didn’t drink the more i realised just how disgusting it actually is. Pretty sure that’s why people who never drank until they are 25 or older necer bother even starting. I started drinking when i was like 14, like most of my friends and we got used to it.

        Nah. I had my first drink at 25. In my case, I learned I hated the taste of vodka, but love the taste of whiskey… which was too strong at first.

        I liked Jack&Cokes from first try, and moved on to neat whiskey not just getting used to the taste, but as my palette was able to adjust to the harshness of it.
