Hamster: Go for the cheap! Go for the boxed wine!! $15 for five liters, it's almost as cheap as spirits. LOL. But I wish I had the cash to be a wine connoisseur. There's a stereotype about females hating beer that I managed to avoid for awhile until I got sick off a bad batch. Now I tolerate it rather begrudgingly.[/QUOTE]
It is not that I tried to fit a stereotype but my tastes were formed before kindergarten and have stayed the same. When I was three, my grandpa gave me a little homemade wine he had. Made from fermenting sour cherries. Delicious! Still remember the taste. I had it with the family on all holidays. Fastforward and I still like red wine, although nothing hass ever matched the taste of grandpas creation.
When I was four, dad gave me a bit of beer to try. I hated it. Fastforward and I wtill do. Nothing has changed.
Btw, nothing horrible ensued from early alcohol exposure. I went on to be the most responsible drinker and have never been drunk in my life. Probably never will be... if it did not happen in the first half, why expect in the second?
