Beer, the social lubricant that brings college students together—except you. You’d rather keep it classy with a nice bottle of wine or an $8 cocktail. Everyone will ask you why you don’t drink it, and truth be told, simply saying you don’t like the taste is not a satisfactory answer. Here are 12 things only people who don’t drink beer understand. Bottoms up!
1. The rest of the world thinks you’re weird AF
2. Being forced to chug beer is actually the death of you
3. Not understanding why or how people can crave a nice cold brew
4. People not respecting you for your choice of drink
5. Spending tons of money on a mixed drink because that $1 pint just won’t do
6. Party games not being as fun as people make them out to be
7. Getting drunk way faster than all your friends
8. Getting this look every time you tell people you hate the taste of beer
9. Secretly wanting to enjoy a beer or two but just not being able to
10. A trip to the bar for everyone else is a trip to the liquor store for you
11. Getting the worst hangovers
12. Every once in a while ordering a beer just so you feel like you fit in but not being able to finish it
