I love beer and hard alcohol, mixed drinks...everything really, excluding wine.

It's an acquired taste, and not to sound like I'm talking down but most of the people on this site are teens, which in the states makes them not of legal age in the first place.

While this doesn't preclude them from drinking even in the slightest, it may relegate their drinking habits to the weekend puke-off, and could explain why they find it 'yucky' unless they grow up on an indian reservation.

It's not for everyone, but most people my age like at least some form of 'the drink', which may speak to the kind of people I spend my leisure time with, but I still think you just have to give it a chance.
