beer

Entire class went out last night to eat dinner and drink. Went for the dinner, left before the actual heavy drinking session :P

Had a glass of beer last night (my first). I think that I actually prefer beer to wine -- beer is a bit sour, but wine is bitter, which I hate. The only other alcoholic drink I've had more than a sip of is vodka ice which I've been assured is pretty much like juice. Alcoholic content only 5% or something like that, but my face was bright red after just a bottle. I think that beer has about the same amount of alcohol, but it doesn't seem to affect me as much (or maybe I just didn't drink as much).

The beer tasted all right at first, but towards the bottom of the glass, the taste seemed to become stronger, and I couldn't stand it any more.

I'm vaguely amused at how solicitous everyone was. Maybe my face did turn red.

Yeah, eight years after I became legal to drink alcohol in the states and I still don't like most of it, much to the distress of my oenophile parents. Believe me, I am all about the icewines. And ports. And muscats. I don't really have the tolerance to even get mixed drinks at restaurants and bars anymore unless i'm splitting it with the boy, but if you find general wine and beer sour, try dessert wines. :)
