its literally just carbonated piss and you cant even get drunk off it. and i say this as a german, who’s been trying both ‘good’ and bad beer since 16 years old.

A bunch of my friends at university, including my now fiancee, frequent craft beer pubs. Apparently craft beer tastes better than the big-brand lagers and beers.
Over time I’ve probably tried tens if not over a hundred different beers. But to me they all taste the same. To me they all taste overwhelmingly like straw which I assume is actually the hops.
My fiancee likes the taste of beer so much he drinks non-alcoholic beer on occasion. He also drinks black tea and coffee which makes me think maybe he tolerates/enjoys bitter tastes more than me.
There is certainly an argument that can be made that this is a toxic masculinity thing. I don’t associate with people who are extremely self-conscious about their masculinity so I can confirm this certainly wasn’t the case for my group of friends. They just genuinely like the taste and the vibe of craft beer pubs.
That might be the most hilarious description of beer I’ve heard.
But if I had to guess, I’d say it’s probably the malted barley that tastes like straw to you, especially if you taste it in EVERY beer. I don’t think all beers have hops, and my wife describes hops as tasting like pine cones, soap, or flowers.
