    I tried to convert my wife's 21-year-old cousin, to no avail.

    In his words, the Boont Valley Amber "had too much taste to get drunk as fast as possible." Sigh.

    Did you mercilessly taunt him for being more like a girl than a guy and for not liking good beer because of his period? Usually does the trick. I may be a bit zealous and unrelenting, but it's for the greater good!

    Bought a BCBS for a friend on tap. After tasting it, he says "I don't drink liquor". He left it at the bar and ordered a Bud Lite.

    Regardless of the beer I'm drinking or offering - "Is that that dark beer? How do you drink that stuff?"

    A little different but my gf will only drink stouts and sours because she says that all my other craft beers "taste too much like beer"

    not sure what's worse - the casual sexism, or the fact that the casual sexism works.

    Well, he's gay, and spends most of his time hanging out in groups where he's the only guy, so I'm not entirely sure this argument would have held much sway.

    The worst part must be the casual sexism, because it is the best part when it works and I have new craft drinking pals :slight_smile:

    Haha, fair enough. Going to have to try a different approach! And if he keeps rejecting craft, at least it's a great excuse to open a good beer or two every time you try. "Don't like the Bourbon County OR the Zombie Dust? Guess I'll just have to drink both...."

    More on topic, I constantly have people compare anything dark to a milkshake. "BUT THE CALORIES!" And then they proceed to drink 15 BMCs.

    Overheard at a recent neighborhood party. The names have been changed to protect the guilty.
    The parties are Pam - a dedicated Coors light drinker who's married to Jeff, who recently switched from Coors light to Bud Light.

    Pam: "There goes my dumbass husband Jeff with that Bud Light stuff. He doesn't know what good beer is".

    Kinda tells you about the mindset of some macro drinkers. As closed as a duck's ass.

    Drinking a Quad
    Girl- "there's something off"
    Me- "like what- too bitter? too sweet? too much alcohol?
    Girl- "no. I don't know. I can't describe it" *continues drinking Miller Lite*

    You failed to mention what she said after, "I'll continue drinking my Miller Lite, it's water."

    No horror story but I'm thankful you called the local suicide prevention hotline after both of these events so you can relate the experiences.
