hard liquor or beer?

ew. considering that most often I see kids getting the big cheap cases of Bud Light and Natty Light, I’m convinced that practically no one our age drinks beer for the taste.

Yeah, really!!! At home in Toronto, most of my high school friends had standards: at our (mostly BYOB) parties we’d all bring nice microbrewery beer. Now that I’m in college all people seem to drink is Bud or Miller or Coors or any of your ****ty American beers. So many people I know say they hate the taste of beer; I suspect it’s because all they drink is this kind of crap.

This is especially disappointing to me because I personally love beer. It’s a tasty drink that’s wonderful to sip on–great for long conversations at a pub. But at school I mostly drink hard liquor now, simply because I get a stomach ache from all that bad beer.

Also: I can’t understand the people who make mixed drinks with so much mix and so little drink that they can’t taste the alcohol at all. If you don’t like the taste of alcohol, why on earth do you drink it? Personally, I think strong-tasting stuff is delicious.
