.....it doesn't even smell good?! I'm so sad for you. Coffee, bread, bacon are my 3 favourite smells
Sadly it doesn't! I'll give up my share. You can have it 😊 |

Coffee I get it, it's an acquired taste. But I sure don't like it.
The taste that coffee adds to things is great, and the smell is amazing. A bad brew tastes like bitter dirt water and has the same effect on your stomach. I've never had a good black brew in my life. I do love me some coffee milk, but at that point we are right back to coffee adding flavor to things, not being good itself. |

Matcha. Every everyone says it's this wonderful day and when I try it it's like drinking blended lawn clippings.
It’s delicious. I also love sencha. Black coffee is also superior compared to the sugar bomb coffee drinks most of the country drinks. |

That will be IPAs for me. If I wanted to drink grapefruit pith I can think of better ways to do it.
IPAs are the only beers worth drinking imo. Whiskey or IPAs nothing else really hits right. |

I'm quite surprised nobody has mentioned Scotch. It's revered by old dudes, with super expensive, hard to find bottles only pulled out for the most special occasions. No matter how expensive the bottle it always tastes like it was decanted straight out of Sasquatch's butthole
Hard disagree, but the range of Scotch flavors is way higher than most liquors like whiskey. Buy 4-5 bottles from different regions, and you will find one you like. Or just go to Edinburgh, which is bucket list worthy without the Scotch...and do a scotch tour. Scotch, scotch, scotch, down in my belly. |

I don't want to lick a wet forest floor, much less ingest it. It is a nice smell like a campfire, which I also don't want to ingest.

I used to hate IPAs, but then I accidentally picked up a Red Rock IPA that snuck into a sixer of lagers and that specific beer unlocked in me whatever makes people love IPA, now it’s the only kind of beer I want to drink. |

I don't get why people like them, they taste awful. Red bull in particular makes me wanna throw up. Its so carbonated and so bitter they add so much sugar, and then you just get this sweet-bitter taste that is just awful. |

Haha long story short, I was in the middle of one of the *stan countries driving through and we bought a 12 pack of 2 litre bottles that we didn't realise was sparkling. Making cheap packet pasta, coffee and brushing your teeth with sparkling water is not fun!
Just open it and let it go flat. Did you spend 15 minutes camping, total? |

Eggnog. 🤢
I can't stand homemade eggnog... One wiff of the fresh nutmeg reminds me of the time I downed half a cup of it in a moment of desperation; aka to get high. Not recommended, felt like a 48 shitty weed Brownie high mixed with a minor flu. That amount of nutmeg is the most putrid shit ever. Getting it down was insanely difficult. Standard issue cheap grocery store eggnog on the other hand is so fucking' tasty. Grab a gallon and drink it over a weekend and I'm my fat ass is set for the winter. |

Monster energy drinks. Tastes like what I imagine dumpster juice is like. And any drink with Stevia in it. Instant dealbreaker if I see it in the ingredients.
Agree on the stevia. It's sweet but not like sugar. And leaves a weird aftertaste |

Ooh, haven't tried that one! A beer shop close to me has a deal with Vault City (started two months ago): they get ALL the beers Vault City produces. I guess I'll be spending more money going forward lol. Btw, if you like sours, try the Foundation by VC. It's what all their sour beers are based on, and it's really good! |

The thing about IPAs is there are many, many different styles, it's a very broad description. Some do taste very citrussy, others don't at all. Red IPAs for example are more malt based flavor, WC IPAs are usually milder. It depends on the hops used and the individual recipe. It's hard to find two that taste alike. Not criticizing your taste, and if you don't like them you don't like them, just that they aren't all citrus hop bombs. |

I really enjoy the taste of alcohol, especially strong drinks like rum. I drink it neat and it's amazing. We have a saying (wouldn't be surprised if it exists in English as well) — taste has no friends. It's all subjective. |

If you like that bite, you might also try (non-alcoholic) birch beer. It's generally stronger. |

Tap water. This is highly dependent on where you live. I've had well water that was better than anything I've ever drank and then there's city/town water... ugh. It's funny how people bring up how advanced the local water plant is while turning a blind eye to the, I don't know 50-60 year old piping that delivers it to your house? I have to run a whole house filter just to shower with it. |

I've never liked beer, most other alcohols I could drink very little. Recently I've found some really good ciders, they don't have any of that bitterness that beer has. So far an unfiltered cider is the best. |

I absolutely love the taste of energy drinks. The more artificial and tangy, the better. It's hard to find, but there's a soda that tastes like an energy drink without the caffeine and I buy it whenever I can. |
