Most beers taste gross, any suggestions?

Question

Ok, most beers in my opinion taste like an ***. Smells kinda funky too, but thats not a big of deal. I see people chuggin beers all the time, and wonder how they do it..I want to join in on the fun, but drinking *** isnt very pleasent. Is there anyway you can make a regular beer taste good? Like a soda, or juice or something?

Answer 1

if you are trying them out of a can and don't like them, try drinking from a bottle. It tastes different because the metal doesn't 'leach' into the beer. Try a light beer, like Miller light or bud light.



if you keep drinking it, you might grow to like it. it took me a while to do this. however, some people just don't like beer and never will. You might be one of these people.



just curious, what kind have you tried?

Answer 2

Try different styles of beer. There are many more than you may think. Or you could try to brew your own. I compare that to a home cooked meal vs. MacDonalds. If you can make macaroni and cheese from a box, you can make good beer.



Making a crappy beer taste good? Stick a lime in a Carona.

Some people add salt to their beer or mix it with tomato juice. Germans mix beer half and half with lemonade and call it a Raddler. If you want the most watered flavor beer you can find try Coors Light. Drinking any beer ice cold will hide some flavors. If you try all these options and still can't stand the taste of beer, you're going to have to try mixed drinks or wine. For some it's just an acquired taste that takes time.

Answer 3

Beer is a acquired taste for most people. Beer is brewed with hops, which gives beer the characteristic bitter taste. Light beers tend to have less flavor. The beer that I drank that had the least flavor is a very cold Coors Light. To me, it tasted like flavorless cold water. It isn't called "Colorado Kool-aid" for nothing.



Most people "chugging" beer usual drink the cheapest beer they can find (what they call "regular beer"), which I think taste awful. They also tend to drink it when it is too warm.



There is no practical way to improve the taste of cheap beer, except making the beer almost cold enough to freeze so you don't taste much of that funky flavor, and no beer will taste like a soda or juice.



If you want to drink an alcoholic drink that is sweet and fruity, stay away from beer and try the daiquiris. They are juice or fruit based drinks.



This is, of course, assuming you are legally allowed to drink.

Answer 4

Option 1 - Drink a watered down light beer like Miller Light or Coors Light,



Option 2 - If you cant handle that do your best to finish a regular beer... then move to the light (mentioned above) to see just how watered down they really are, you may enjoy it.



Option 3 - Move on to microbrews. Could take a while, but find a flavor that you like and try a few. Chances are that it is the flavor (bitterness) of the hopps that you dont like... It is an aquired taste. Some brews have fruit flavors embodied in the drink.



Option 4 - Forget it, you dont like beer, drink wine coolers.



Maybe sometime this summer you will know what it is like to enjoy an ice cold beer.

Answer 5

Beer is a taste you have to acquire after time. It's always horrible at first but eventually you will drink it like it's water. Because you are still new to beer drinking I can give you a few tips. First of all beer is not always harsh some are actually very light flavored and almost like water. These are the light beers you see like Bud Light and Miller lite. Start with these first until you get more used to it. If you are going to a party bring your own light beer so you can drink with them. Also some non light beers that are not harsh to drink are Budweiser Select (one of my favorites), Blue Moon which is almost orange in flavor and Samuel Adams even has a beer with chocolate in it so just look around for something you think will taste good and try it. Also the lighter color the beer is the smoother it is.

Answer 6

diverse beers have diverse tastes. some have a style of hops, some grains, some are over the perfect carmel flavored. probably the excellent thank you to get presented to beer to make certain in case you may truly like a nicely-crafted brew is to objective something truly sturdy first of all. If that would not turn your crank, you at the instant are not likely decrease out for beer ingesting. try this: attempt an extraordinarily chilly Stella Artois and/or an extraordinarily chilly Blue Moon. in case you do unlike eithor of those, you're destined to ingesting wine and pina coladas for existence. - Stuart

Answer 7

No! If you like soda, or juice, drink that. If you want alcohol and don't like the taste of beer; there are mixed drinks and all that. If something is not fun for you, you can't join in on the fun; it may be fun for someone else.

Answer 8

Well in my opinion it tastes gross too... I have heard that lemons work well, but i haven't tried it myself...



My idea on it is that if you don't think it smells good and you don't like the taste, why drink it?... Just try not to sucumb to the peer pressure...



If (and you probably do, thats normal) you feel left out during the drinking, find something else you enjoy drinking and drink that. If anything your friends will probably respect you for habing high enough self esteem to say 'Hey, I'm cool. I can drink what i want to, not what other people do!...'



Worked for me, let me know if it works for you!

Answer 9

It is an acquired taste. Like salt and vinegar chips, ya gotta keep trying them till ya like it.

Me personally I love salt and vinegar chips and despise beer. My husband loves it, but the good quality stuff like Samuel Adams, Pete's Wicked Ale, Fat Tire, Sierra Nevada, Arrogant Bastard, Widmer Brothers Heffinweizen, Red Hook.

He calls Bud, Coors, Miller...Rocky Mountain piss-water. Corona is about as low of a beer he will drink.

I still can't stand the stuff. I drink Mojito's, margaritas, amaretto sours and fruit punch or juice with vodka (peach juice with vanilla or mango rum with a splash of 7up is very yummy) .



If you don't like beer there is nothing you can do about it, that is add anything to it. If you don't like the cheap stuff there is nothing you can do to improve it. If you don't like the quality stuff, you just don't have the palate for it

Answer 10

It's hard to disguise the taste of ***. You can spruce it up all you want, still ***. I hear you can mix it with tomato juice, but I think it wil just taste like *** in tomato juice. Just try something else. Refill your beer can with strawberry vodka twister or sex on the beach and then you still look cool but you're drinking a girly drink. nobody will know.

Answer 11

try drinking it with a dash of pure lime juice cordial

im defiantly not a beer drinker but the above is very refreshing

or you could try a Shandie

beer with lemonade

happy chuggin :=)

Answer 12

Answer 13

Lowenbrau is a sweeter beer and when drank with Snickers, it is pretty good. I wouldn't suggest that combination with any other beer.



If you are looking to mix something with beer to make it taste better, mix half and half beer and ginger ale. That will be a little sweeter. Otherwise, many people mix beer with either orange juice or tomato juice. I prefer the oj myself. Another thing to mix beer with is Clamato. It's a tomato juice that has been flavored with clams or oysters (I don't remember which). I like it better than tomato juice.

Answer 14

Can't really change the taste of beer. I can't drink it all the time myself, but seeing as I'm from Milwaukee (beer, beer, and more beer) I tend to drink the beers with more bite. Can't stand the lite beers. Leinenkugels Red is good as is Killigen's Red. Branch out-try something new.

Answer 15

don't pay too much attention to the taste or w/e just drink it normally like soda, then its becomes a habit, but anyones thats what you should be trying to avoid. so as long as you hate the smell and taste of beer then you won't be addicted. so don't ask no more questions. "don't make drinking a habit"

when drinking becomes a habit:

1) you waste money

2) you spend money

3) your check/pay will seem alot smaller

4) you won't have enough money to spend on other things.

5) it will ruin your life (O_O@!)

Answer 16

I hate beer. Trying to make beer taste good is like trying to make a pig wear a tuxedo. Never gonna work! Part of you having confidence in yourself and being happy in your own skin is being able to socialize with your buds and drink what you enjoy. Isn't that what it's all about?

Answer 17

Sometimes foreign beers can taste better (and way worse) so experiment with beers from other countries. if you still cant find any you like, i would suggest malt beers, like mikes hard lemonade, etc. there are a lot of alchoholic options!!!!



OH and adding juice or soda only works with hard liquor or fruity liquor, not beer. unless you like it that way...which would be ...eck. lol

! good luck!

Answer 18

If you don't enjoy drinking alcohol-don't do it. It can become an expensive dangerous habit your friends shouldn't push you to pursue if you don't like it.



If your looking for a tasty beer thats easy on the tongue, try Blue Moon. Pour into a glass and add an orange slice. It's delicious.

Answer 19

If U don't like beer drink some thing else not that hard... I don't like it but I drink it any ways maybe U haven't found the right kind???

Answer 20

there are many types of beers to choose from. you might try a Lambic, which is a beer aged in casks with fruit, and mix it with a wheat beer. Belgian white ales are also a good beer for starters- try hoegarden, white rascal, zon- shandy is also an alternative, it has a wheat beer mixed with lemonade or ginger ale.

Answer 21

first. you dont have to drink to have fun ya know, jus cause everyone else does it to have "fun" doesn't mean thts all you can do too.



but the friends you have that do drink beer, how do they do it? maybe they like to taste. everyone has different preference.



try things like smirnoff - cant taste the alcohol in it.



how old are u btw?

Answer 22

drink all the beer you can it is WAY cool to act like a fool you should just sit back and watch then act like clowns and then you can drive them home. My mom was killed by a drunk when i was 18 and the crap of it is i knew the lady that killed her.

Don't drink or if you do have a brain about it and DON'T do it cause its cool or looks fun it will not be fun when your in Jail. Or having bad dreams about the person you killed and the kids that don't have a parent

Answer 23

i like the way corona tastes with a lot of beer salt. i put it on the rim and i put a lot of lemon in it somtimes and sometimes clamato juice. regular salt works too but sometimes it fizzes too much and starts bubbling out everywhere, its good. also your not supposed to taste it just chug it down and try not to let it sit in your mouth just hurry and get it down. If you cant stand beer then try like mikes hard lemonade or malibu rum with sprite or coke and rum is good.

Answer 24

i was the same way when i started to drink beer it takes awhile to get use to it. but in the end its good yu just got to find your beer and how you like it. Tap, Bottle, Can, Cold, ice cold, warm, dark, light, flavor, ect. if yur old enuff to drink you can just go to your local liquir store and just look around to see if there is anything there that sounds up to your liking.

Answer 25

beer is not for everyone. If you are old enough to drink then I would suggest rum. You don';t need to drink just because everyone else is doing it. Most people do it and do really dumb things.

Answer 26

You really don't have to Drink Beer to have Fun with others.

If you don't like the taste and others do, let them drink it and count yourself Lucky that you don't have to Drink to have Fun.

Answer 27

Keep drinking the stuff and you will get use to the taste. Start with light beer like Coors light. Also, avoid the cheap stuff.

Answer 28

find your own brand, I like Bud-Lite w/tomato juice.

I have found that a different beer taste different with TJ.



or, choose something different like, Mike's Hard Lemonade.



To me, bottled tasted better than can beer.



Basically, it's an acquired taste.

Answer 29

Answer 30
