Do you mean beer or wine or whisky or rum or vodka or bourbon or cider or liqueurs or port or what?

They don't all taste the same.

Or is it just another lame comment?
I've heard many people say the same. My mum, for one.
It's not that unusual.

"I dont drink alcohol at all because I dont like the taste of alcohol in whatever form it is."

Strange statement indeed considering it followed this: "Have I tried every form of alcohol ever produced? No. Just beer and brandy."
Donny.

It's a game. Enjoy it. :D

Shane Whelan is the poster child for tee-totallers. :shock:

It's scary to think that alcohol isn't the reason behind his behaviour.
Keep going, Shintaro.

Yeah I tried them, dont like the taste. Drinking them once many years ago does nto change the fac that I am teetotaller.

With the news today about how only a few drniks a day causes brain damage, it explains why several trollers on here have problems.

there's nothing wrong with being a tee totaller. My mother is one, she grew up Salvation Army, but she did buy a bottle of cheap 'plonk' after the 1953 grand final and got drunk on it.

Then i did see her drink an advokat and lemonade sometime in the 60's, but that's about it.

OOPS. Thanks for reminding me Proud Pies.

I did drink a fluffy duck in 1976. Just in case Donny digs that up.

No Tv and no Beer make Stui go.................Ummmmmmm........


If you don't like the taste of beer or Brandy, there's plenty of premixed drinks out their aimed at teenies who like sweet things. Just like soft drink but with a kick. I don't personally like them, I have a savoury palate.

Ethanol has very little actual flavour of it's own, so you can't really say you don't like the taste. It's the medium that the alcohol is in that has the flavour.

If you don't drink Alcohol because you don't like how it effects you, fair enough. Same for religious reasons or personal/ social reasons. Some people grew up with alcoholic parent (s) and choose not to drink.

As far as Alcohol causing brain damage, I personally subscribe to the Buffalo theory.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Haha I used to get paid out all the time for drinking those...

actually, don't mind a Vodka Cruiser now and then. I actually like the taste of vodka. Beer... I can take it or leave it really. Carlton's my favourite :)
