I don't know, a couple months.

The only way I ever drink beer is by shotgunning it... you can barely even taste it[: Like a couple hours ago I shotgunned 7 super cheap, nasty beers. I wasn't scarred for life[:

A few months to get to like the general taste. Then about a year of heavy drinking to start appreciating the subtle differences between different ones. I consider myself to be pretty well educated on beer (lager mainly) these days.

when I was 11 or so
tried it to be a cool guy because everyone made a big deal out of it.
but when I drank my first beer I pretty much acquired the taste immediately.

nowadays I prefer stronger and more tasteful beers like trappists and abbey beers

"It has an acquired taste" is a sad, yet plentifully done way of saying "It's shit, but it makes you cool to pretend to like it."

Winner winner chicken dinner.

I don't like beer. I don't like the taste of it. Although, I do like champarrião, which is wine, beer and sugar.

ITT: a bunch of underage b&

I've had to acquire the taste in order not to be labeled a queer and a pussy on nights out, I don't mind beer now it took me awhile as I've always had a sweet tooth but like I said I'm up to the point where I can enjoy a pint. Though secretly taste wise I'd much prefer a coke, but you can't get wankered off coke can you know?

This. Very much this.

1 minute, The minute I was born. You know why?

Because I am that fucking manly.

Never enjoyed it, I've only began to tolerate it. I drink rarely and when I do it's for the effects, not for the taste.

It taste like a wet gym sock with extra brew good sir. Depends on the brand and to be honest isn't as great as people make it to be.

It didn't take much fr me to get used to the taste of beer, even at a young age.Now it's my main alcoholic drink when I go partying/drinking.It goes down smoother than other alcoholic drinks and due to the low percentage of alcohol, it should make you last longer than people who prefer strong liquor.Unless, of course, if you've got a low tolerance for alcohol to begin with.

I liked beer from the start (age 14)

I'm almost 22 now and I will hardly ever drink Liqour (special occasions). It's not that I don't like Liqour but Beer has always just appealed to me more. It's not like I'm the biggest drinker either, I only drink socially or if I'm watching some football.

You can chief on a 6 pack and still have a good time. You take a couple of shots too many and you're about to get reckless and have a headache tomorrow.

About 1 month after going down the local park and drinking at 15 years old.

Yes I know, I was ahead of my time.

Its a mans drink honousltly if you dont like it drink some wine

faggot

I've always enjoyed the taste of beer.

I learned at a young age that men drink beer, and I think that stuck with me seeing all of my Dad's friends and Step-Dad's friends drinking lots of beer. That is how you know you're a man kind of thing. It's a thing that men do so I started drinking beer young and I love it now.

I didn't really start to find beer drinkable until I was about 16/17. Before that I just thought it tasted vile. There are still some beers that I don't like drinking because they have a horrid after taste. Fosters is a good example of this.

Interesting, pretty much no consistency in this thread. Everything from the first sip to years after.

It tastes like ass.

Didn't really like it at first. Most people don't.

After a while though, it grows on you. Tastes le' epic.

Good luck with that.

My dad had offered me a drink of beer. And i refused. I think im doing pretty well.

I remember when I used to be like that. Then shit happened.

I actually didn't mind it after my first one. It's weird, normally I don't like bitter stuff, but it's just... beer.

Yeah! Thats exactly why they sell so much of it and it is immensely popular!

In all seriousness though I'm sure there is merit to what you are saying, I honestly wouldn't know.

Well, the thing is that most people dont know any better, because they haven't had any better.
