How do you get used to beer?
Ok i just turned 18 and its legal for me to buy booze but how do the guys drink it everyday? Its so bitter I can't understand how you would get used to it? Any tips or tricks, or do you just get used to it because of a can a day?
Answers:
Start with the good stuff, not crappy American macros.
Since you're 18 and it's legal, I'm guessing you're in Europe, no?
In England, I like Tennant's from Scotland. Good solid lager. Drink it cold.
If you're in Germany (and don't already love your bier), get a weissbier/weizen. Maybe sample a helles from Bavaria.
Best bet no matter where you are is to drink an entire 12-pack of Czechia's Pilsner Urquell. It's a tough mainstream beer (pivo) not to LOVE. It's your Gold Standard of beer.
You may also try Guinness, but don't go for the Extra Stout. Get the smooth kind from an Irish pub, or the Pub Draft that comes in cans. BE SURE to pour it off into a pint glass!
Welcome to the world of beer. You'll learn to love it if you give it a good chance. There's something for everyone.
