Now let's talk, OP. I'm assuming from your top choice of Guinness that you're a stout (or porter, if you prefer that term) guy. I highly recommend you to find a local craft brewery shop and ask the guys working there to give you a custom 6 pack of stouts. I would recommend specific ones, but the thing with craft beer is that they aren't widely distributed, so I could just be giving you options that you don't have access to. Check out ratebeer.com and beeradvocate.com as well. It's highly rewarding when you find something that is so good you just have to grin like a child and laugh.DustyDrB said:Because I like the taste. I'm a beer guy. So let's go through my top 5 for those of you who are undoubtedly asking, "How does one love the taste of beer so much?"

All these are craft beer, so you may or may not be able to find them where you live. But before you say you don't like beer, go to a craft beer store and have the people working there give you a few recommendations.
Other drinks I love:
Rum and Coke: Simple, easy to make, and tasty. Also something I can actually like if it's made with cheap rum.
Bourbon and ginger: I prefer Maker's Mark.
Old Fashioned: Go easy on it, it's like 80% bourbon. It's the original cocktail.
Where are you from? RJ Rockers (Yes, dumb name for a brewery) has an outstanding one called Son of a Peach. I especially love it in the summer.zen5887 said:Scotch is my main drink, but I'll drink pretty much anything except Beer.. I just can't enjoy the hops taste.. I've had some peach beer that I enjoy and my bandmate is determined to find me more, but overall Beer isn't for me.
I also enjoy shots.
Depends, but for your first drink, try something easy, like a pint of good beer, a simple spirit mix [rum and coke, whisky and coke etc] or a good glass of cider.Redlin5 said:I have not had a single alcoholic beverage but I will shortly be at drinking age. What should I try as my first drink? Should I expect my first drink to suck or be amazing?
