Stop drinking bad beer!.!.!. Bud!.!. Miller!.!.!. Coors!.!.!. Corona!.!.!. and the like are poor example of beer!. Go find some Craft beers like Dogfish Head, New Holland, Ommegang, Rochefort, Unibroue, Two Brothers, St!. Bernardus, Great Lakes!.!.!.!. and then come back here and tell me beer has lost its "zest"!

What has happened is your palate has developed past the water corn alcohol you normally drink and is craving complexity and flavor!

EDIT:

For the record beer and vodka contain the exact same amount of alcohol per serving!.

12oz (standard serving size of beer) X !.05 (5% alcohol) = 0!.6oz ethanol alcohol (actual alcohol)

1!.5oz (standard serving size of vodka) X !.4 (40% alcohol) = 0!.6oz ethanol alcohol (actual alcohol)

In fact!.!.!. if you move on over to say!.!.!. the Rochefort 10 I mentioned above it is 11!.3% alcohol!.!.!.

12oz X !.113 = 1!.353oz alcohol per serving!. Almost double that of the vodka! In your face anyone that says liquor is strong!Www@FoodAQ@Com

The next step is a detox clinic or AA program!.

if your drink of choice does not work for you anymore and you want to go to a drink that is about 8 times stronger, it means you're likely alcoholic, because vodka is definitely something you drink to get drunk, not for the taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes!. I think it is time for you to make the BIG transition from beer to hard alcohol, however, be warned that the first few weeks of this will be difficult and may cause you to do things that you may not usually do!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Probably!. But you won't be able to drink the same quantity!.
It was a switch I made long ago & don't regret it!. Although I may have a beer or 2 after a couple of vodkas!.
My favorite is the orange flavored on the rocks, by Stoli & Seagram's!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No gurl!.!.!.!.!.I drank vodka a few years ago and went into blackouts!.!.!.!.!.!.didn't remember a thing!. Vodka is the DEVIL!.!.!.!.!.!.haha! (Tequila is the DEVIL too)

Why not try wine!? It's stronger than beer, but not as potent as vodka!. I get very mellow on wine (I actually get hyper on beer)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Why not!. There are hundreds (may thousands) of Vodkas these days!. Try some of boutique vodkas or old standbys!. Like the cranberry, try some of the recipes below!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Just stop drinking the crap like Budweiser or MGD light and start drinking real beer like mad hatter, hops infusion, Belgians triples, home brews, etc!. Something with flavor and hops!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Start drinking Canadian beer!.!.!. 5-6% !Www@FoodAQ@Com

try sambuca and coke with a twist of lime[called mad Italian]the sugar in coke and sambuca combined with cokes caffeine jack you up while the alcohol lowers you inhibitions !.dance all nightWww@FoodAQ@Com

Personally i think people who drink to get drunk are wasting there lives and should be used to make a night a bit more fun!.!.not wasters!.!.!.if your not idc really

but just drink what gives you a zest, but dont overdo it :PWww@FoodAQ@Com

Go for the vodka, and try it with tomato juice occasionally, that is a great drink!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
