Today I bought beer for myself for the first time in my life. This also means that today is the first time I've tasted beer. My inability to consume alcohol means that this is not something I commonly engage in. After the first taste (wine-style, take a sip, swirl it around in the mouth, spit it out, wash it out), I'm not entirely sure what all the fuss is about, but I was never very good with wine either, so maybe I'm just bad with alcoholic beverages.
