    Its been a while since I had alcohol. The last thing I had was Vokda since my wife is using it to make Mint Extract, and sip was enough to remind me why I don’t like the drink.

    As for Beer proper. I think it was a fresh bottle of mikes hard lemonade, and what I can recall was overwhelming bitterness mixed with a burning sensation. But that could just be the alcohol drying out my throat.

    I also did a rum and coke shot, again bitterness and burning.

    Not sure if allergic, but I can see a sensitivity to it. Especially with my strong sense of smell.

    I personally see it more like an aversion like how some people avoid carbonated beverages

      Wow, humans sure are different: I find that cloyingly sweet. Then again, I generally go for strong bitter flavors: black coffee, dark chocolate, the bitterest style of beers, the Cabernets of wines
