You're right, I shouldn't be bothered. It's your right to drink beer that you don't like.
If after 4 bottles, I clearly didn't like the beer, yeah, I'd toss the rest. If the taste had an appeal, but was a bit over the top for me, I'd put that one on the side and try some other samples of the style.
Where did this even come from. Of course you should try things. That doesn't mean you have to like them. And if you don't like it now, it doesn't mean you won't like it if you try it again a year from now. You owe it to yourself to always continue to try things old and new.
Quite frankly, you sound like a 10 year old trying to get through his first pack of cigarettes.
Drinking beer shouldn't be about
tolerating. It should be about enjoying. May be you chose your words wrong, but this was the wording that I was responding to.
Clearly, you missed the point of my last post. Choking down a six pack isn't the way to aquire a taste for a beer. Try one of these. Try one of those. If it's a taste that you have the potential of liking, it will grow on you over time. My point was simply that you don't have to force it.
Someday I hope we can share a Stone Double Bastard!
