That facepalm moment

Not really. There's no arguing with taste....

Or, as my High School Latin teacher might have put it:

"De Gustibus non est disputandum." :-)

 

I was drinking a Treblehook at a party, I let a guy take a swig, "It's good, kinda tastes like Guinness"

When people have no frame of reference for what they just tasted they just say it tastes like another beer that has more flavor.

My response to comments like these is "ya it's definitely thicker and has a lot more flavor than most beers" then ask them if they want a glass.

 

When I traded for Wisconsin Belgian Red for my wife and she said it tasted like Creme Soda and she hates creme soda. I did a WTF, smacked my face and said fine. Im done trading for you.

Cheers!

 

I shared a 12pack of Bud Light Platinum with a friend from work and her roommate. Her roommate took a sip and said "it's not bad. Kind of taste like that raspberry beer you guys carry... What's it called? Oh yeah, Framboise"

 

When I read this thread, I facepalmed.

 

When my friend thought an eighteen-month-old unblended lambic was a sixteen-month-old unblended lambic I facepalmed so hard I nearly broke my monocle.

 

Rarely do responses on this website make me laugh. This one is an exception.

 

The any dark beer tastes like guinness response bothers me to no end. I think most of these people have tried guinness like once in their life or not at all, and to them dark beer = guinness.

 

Hold on there. You didn't give the guy any credit for changing from a Bud Light to a Brown Shugga. Or credit for liking it, even if he said it kind of tasted like Blue Moon. Be glad he didn't say it tasted exactly like Blue Moon.
But to answer your question, yes I have facepalm moments whenever I see someone drinking a bottle of macro beer in a craft beer bar and double facepalm moments when I find out a 12 oz. bottle is only $1 less than a pint of the good stuff. And oh yeah, I have a mini facepalm moment whenever anybody looks at what I'm drinking and if it's dark just presumes its strong. It's a mini moment since I used to believe it myself a long, long time ago in a place far, far away.

 

So you're saying he was wrong twice.

 

We all know in the fall bars love to serve pumpkin beers with the sugar rim glass and in my opinion its really more of novelty but I dont hate on people that like it because it gets them to try some better beers

Any ways I was at a bar recently and one girl ordered a bud light draft but asked can you do the sugar rim thing.

So I am designing a new theory maybe if we just put a sugar rim on a glass of craft beer everyone will try it

 

Sugar-rimmed Creme Brulee for the coma win.

 

I would like to know what creme soda your wife is drinking dude. Probably cheaper than trading for New Glarus.

 

Any story (worth telling) that begins I was drinking with two girls...
Should have a very different ending.

Three 19-20something pregnant girls in typical college-party-girl outfits came into the wine/beer store I worked at. Noticing they were all (very) pregnant, and hoping that perhaps they were looking for a gift or something, I went over and asked if I could help them pick out something. The response? Oh, well the doctor said we could have ONE glass of an alcoholic beverage. What will get us the most f%cked up on only one glass?

facepalm

 

Quoted party was not a female... Makes it worse doesn't it?

 

Were they blonde?
