Out of curiosity, I was wondering how many folks there are who don’t drink either of those choices (for religious reasons, recovering from alcoholism, underage, don’t like the taste but no other objections, etc) and would be getting a soda or other drink instead. It’s said constantly that everyone and their cousin will drink beer or wine with no objections but there are exceptions to the rule which seems to throw people off and makes them think that those folks are lying.

We’re ttc so I’ve been avoiding alcohol all together but in general I don’t drink beer at all and have to be really in the mood to drink wine too just for taste. I’ll usually drink Pop at a wedding especially if dh is drinking at all I’m the default dd since it usually doesn’t bother me not to. But if a cranberry vodka or something was offered I’d be more likely to want to have a drink.

@Selene221: I’m in my late 20s and I don’t drink at all because I don’t like the taste; however, my Fiance drinks.

I can’t stand beer and the only wine I’ve found that I like is a good sweet moscato di asti.

I never developed a taste for beer or wine. I find it too bitter. I only drink cocktails where I can’t taste the alcohol.

I will NOT touch beer. The smell makes me gag.
That being said, I do enjoy wine. It gets gross when not paired properly though. One time, I was drinking some chardonnay and someone gave me some tacos. Ick. Bad choice. I was like “Oh yeah! I LOVE TACOS!” but then felt sad because the wine tasted gross.
Tangent over.
I might stick to water if I wasn’t in the mood or was driving. I love water.

Beer? No, it’s gross.
Wine? I’m a newbie in the wine world and haven’t quite gotten up to enjoying the less sweet wine, so it’d depend. If you have sweet wine, yeah maybe. Lol. To give an idea, I like Moscato. The rest of it is hit or miss.
I much prefer actual liquor/mixed drinks.

I don’t like the taste of beer, wine, or champagne at all. I barely drink at all just cause I don’t like it, but if I did I’d pick some sort of vodka cocktail. I’m much more likely to just drink water or soft drinks though.

I’m not a drinker unless I can’t taste the alcohol. I hate the taste/smell/burn.
