Beer.
FFS hops are a preservative that make beer taste terrible. Why would anyone want an extra hoppy beer.
I quit drinking many years ago. I liked beer, but I would have said that it didn’t taste that great, even the best ones were at best…interesting . Once I quit though, I think it must be the alcohol flavor or something because I have found I really like stuff like hop water. Nice and fruity and bitter (in a good kind of way), it’s just lovely.
I've been drinking beer for nearly 20 years, and I agree. The only time it tastes good is when I'm craving alcohol. I would never drink it casually for the taste. And given that I'm a Millennial, I've tried pretty much every variety of beer in existence. They're all bad.
Try a radler on a hot day. It is a light beer like a pilsner mixed 50:50 with lemonade, either fizzy or flat lemonade. It is also called a shandy in the UK
It is very thirst quenching without being too sweet from the lemonade.
Thanks for trying but I've had shandys (shandies?) before and they're among my least favorite beer varieties.
I am of the opinion that alcohol and sugar should never mix. I swear it makes the hangover worse. FWIW I don't drink for the taste (because all alcohol tastes bad), I drink to get drunk.
