I used to drink socially but mostly quit after the pandemic. My friend had a problem but once I got clean I “quit” out of solidarity and realized how much I disliked it. Now I drink once every month maybe and only a few beers at a time
Personally, it’s not the alcohol, it’s their fermented flavors. Not a fan of distilled spirits that much, but I homebrew. (shout out /c/[email protected] ) it’s also a way to take cheap or leftover produce and make fermented stuff. Preserves well, too.
Yes! I find dark beers do well in chocolate baking and in heavy stews. Same with dark wines. I’ve heard that lighter and ambers work in cheese soups. And white wine is basically a light acidifiee for anything.
“Refusing” to believe other people can like things just because you don’t is pretty dumb, tbh. Get over yourself. You’re not the arbiter of everything.
And fwiw, the reverse is also true, and anyone that keeps telling you that you just “haven’t tried the right one” can go kick bricks. You’re allowed to not like things, too.
I refuse to believe anyone likes the taste of alcohol. It tastes like poison…because it is.
You’ve saved yourself a lot of money and trouble.

Yeah, I’m not arguing that. I enjoy the taste of a lot of beers and some wine…but like you said, it ain’t the alcohol.
And like the other commenter said, it can be great as a cooking ingredient when the actual alcohol is burned off

MMMMM EVERCLEAR SO YUMMY
Yeah right. The good tasting stuff is all the other shit in the mix, not the ethanol.
